I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.
– Hafiz
The way you make love is the way
God will be with you.
– Rumi
“Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
Live in silence.”
– Rumi
“In your light I learn how to love.
In your beauty, how to make poems.
You dance inside my chest,
where no one sees you.”
– Hafiz
One day You will take my heart completely and make it more fiery than a dragon. Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
– Hafiz
The God Who Only Knows Four Words
Every
Child
Has Known God,
Not the God of names,
Not the God of don’ts,
Not the God who does
Anything Weird,
But the God who only knows four words
And keeps repeating them, saying:
“Come Dance with Me.”
Come
Dance.
– Hafiz
This Sky
This
Sky
Where we live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love,
Love.
– Hafiz
