I have no more words.
Let soul speak with the silent
articulation of a face.
–Jelalludin Rumi 1207 – 1273
Coleman Barks version
Rumi:
Love comes with a knife, not some
shy question, and not with fears
for its reputation! I say
these things disinterestedly. Accept them
in kind. Love is a madman
running through the mountains, drinking poison,
and now quietly choosing annihilation.
holding up your robes to keep them dry.
You must dive naked under and deeper under,
a thousand times deeper! Love flows down.
what comes. Tell me, is the earth worse
for giving in like that?
Open completely. Let your spirit-ear
listen to the green dome’s passionate murmur.
Shiver in this new love beyond all
above and below. The sun rises, but which way
does night go? I have no more words.

I started looking for you, not knowing
how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.
They're in each other all along."
Rumi
My heart has become a bird which searches in the sky.
Every part of me goes in different directions.
Is it really so that the one I love is Everywhere?
Rumi
True peace does not come and go.
What comes and goes is what
Obscures true happiness and true peace.

Rumi:
Love comes with a knife, not some
shy question, and not with fears
for its reputation! I say
these things disinterestedly. Accept them
in kind. Love is a madman
working his wild schemes, tearing off his clothes,
running through the mountains, drinking poison,
and now quietly choosing annihilation.
You've been walking the ocean’s edge,
holding up your robes to keep them dry.
You must dive naked under and deeper under,
a thousand times deeper! Love flows down.
The ground submits to the sky and suffers
what comes. Tell me, is the earth worse
for giving in like that?
Don’t put blankets over the drum!
Open completely. Let your spirit-ear
listen to the green dome’s passionate murmur.
Let the cords of your robe be untied.
Shiver in this new love beyond all
above and below. The sun rises, but which way
does night go? I have no more words.
Let soul speak with the silent
articulation of a face.
