Rumi Quotes 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9

A house of love with no limits,
a presence more beautiful than venus or the moon,
a beauty whose image fills the mirror of the heart.
Rumi

We are the night ocean filled
With glints of light. We are the space
Between the fish and the moon,
While we sit here together.
Rumi

I've torn the cloth to shreds
and thrown it away.
If you're not completely naked,
wrap your beautiful robe of words
around you,
and sleep.
Rumi

There is only one way to win him,
this Beloved of mine -
Become his.
Rumi

The springtime of Lovers has come,
that this dust bowl may become a garden;
the proclamation of heaven has come,
that the bird of the soul may rise in flight.
The sea becomes full of pearls,
the salt marsh becomes sweet as kauthar,
the stone becomes a diamond from the mine,
the body becomes wholly soul.
Rumi

With Your sweet Soul, this soul of mine
has merged as water does with wine.
Who can part the water from the wine,
or me from You when we combine?
You have become my greater self;
how can smallness limit me?
You've taken on my being,
how shall I not take on Yours?
Forever, You have claimed me
that forever I may know You're mine.
Rumi
Your love has pierced me to the depths,
its ecstasy entwines both bone and nerve.
Rumi

O Sun, fill our house once more with light!
Make happy all your friends and blind your foes!
Rise from behind the hill, transform the stones
To rubies and the sour grapes to wine!
O Sun, make our vineyard fresh again,
And fill the steppes with houris and green cloaks!
Physician of the lovers, heaven's lamp!
Rescus the lovers! Help the suffering!
Show but your face - the world is filled with light!
But if you cover it, it's the darkest night!
Rumi

I said,
'O sweet beloved,
you are the refuge of my soul.'
He said, 'If you belong to me,
don't talk of your own soul.'
I said, 'Why do you cut me
with your sharp words?'
He said, 'My words wouldn't hurt you
if you weren't in love with yourself.'
Rumi

Beating your wings and feathers,
you broke free from this cage.
Rising up to the sky
you attained the world of the soul.
Rumi

O heart, what a wonderful bird you are.
Seeking divine heights,
Flapping your wings,
you smashed the pointed spears of your enemy.
Rumi

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don't go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep.
Rumi

never lose hope
when the Beloved
sends you away.
If you're abandoned
if you're left hopeless
tomorrow for sure
you'll be called again.
If the door is shut
right in your face
keep waiting with patience
don't leave right away.
Seeing your patience
your love will soon
summon you with grace
raise you like a champion.
Rumi

Should Love's heart rejoice unless I burn?
For my heart is Love's dwelling.
If You will burn Your house, burn it, Love!
Who will say, 'It's not allowed'?
Burn this house thoroughly!
The lover's house improves with fire.
From now on I will make burning my aim,
From now on I will make burning my aim,
for I am like the candle: burning only makes me brighter.
Abandon sleep tonight; traverse fro one night
the region of the sleepless.
Look upon these lovers who have become distraught
and like moths have died in union with the One Beloved.
Look upon this ship of God's creatures
and see how it is sunk in Love.
Rumi

Sometimes I wonder, sweetest love, if you
Were a mere dream in along winter night,
A dream of spring-days, and of golden light
Which sheds its rays upon a frozen heart;
A dream of wine that fills the drunken eye.
And so I wonder, sweetest love, if I
Should drink this ruby wine, or rather weep;
Each tear a bezel with your face engraved,
A rosary to memorize your name...
There are so many ways to call you back-
Yes, even if you only were a dream.
Rumi

Once a beloved asked her lover: 'Friend,
You have seen many places in the world!
Now - which of all these cities was the best?'
He said: 'The city where my sweetheart lives!'
Rumi

From myself I am copper,
through You, friend, I am gold.
From myself I'm a stone, but
through You I am a gem!
Rumi

Lover whispers to my ear,
'Better to be a prey than a hunter.
Make yourself My fool.
Stop trying to be the sun and become a speck!
Dwell at My door and be homeless.
Don't pretend to be a candle, be a moth,
so you may taste the savor of Life
and know the power hidden in serving.'
Rumi

I believe in love
I swear by love
believe me my love
how long
like a prisoner of grief
can I beg for mercy.
Rumi

Show me your face
I crave
flowers and gardens
open your lips
I crave
the taste of honey
come out from
behind the clouds
I desire a sunny face.
Rumi

in every breath
if you’re the center
of your own desires
you’ll lose the grace
of your beloved
but if in every breath
you blow away
your self claim
the ecstasy of love
will soon arrive.
Rumi

in every breath
if you’re the center
of your own thoughts
the sadness of autumn
will fall on you
but if in every breath
you strip naked
just like a winter
the joy of spring
will grow from within.
Rumi

all your unfulfilled desires
are from your greed
for gain of fulfillments
let go of them all
and they will be sent as gifts.
Rumi

fall in love with
the agony of love
not the ecstasy
then the beloved
will fall in love with you.
Rumi

A true Lover doesn't follow any one religion,
be sure of that.
Since in the religion of Love,
there is no irreverence or faith.
When in Love,
body, mind, heart and soul don't even exist.
Become this,
fall in Love,
and you will not be separated again.
Rumi

Before coming to this world we were in heaven.
We were friends of the angels.
There is our real homeland, and we will return to it.
Rumi

I will soothe you and heal you.
I will bring you roses. I too have been covered with thorns.
Rumi

You twist my heart, dwell in my mind
and fill my eyes, you are my joy
I can’t be without you.
You are my sleep, my rest, the water I drink.
You are my clarity, my dignity, my world
I can’t be without you.
Rumi

Your fragrant breath
like the morning breeze
has come to the stillness of the garden
You have breathed new life into me.
Rumi

The world is a prison and we are the prisoners: dig a hole in the prison and let yourself out!
Rumi

The light which shines in the eye is really the light of the heart.
Rumi

In truth everything and everyone
Is a shadow of the Beloved,
And our seeking is His seeking
And our words are His words...
We search for Him here and there,
while looking right at Him.
Sitting by His side, we ask:
'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'
Rumi

He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, 'Live!'
Rumi

If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.
Rumi

Everyone is so afraid of death, but the real sufis just laugh: nothing tyrannizes their hearts. What strikes the oyster shell does not damage the pearl.
Rumi

Christian, Jew, Muslim, shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the mystery, unique and not to be judged.
Rumi

I bow to you for the dust of your feet
Is the crown on my head
And as I walk towards you
Every step I take is a blessing.
Rumi
