I could reach great heights with Your love,
and with longing for You
I will increase a hundredfold.
They ask, “Why are you circling him?”
O ignorance, I am circling myself.
— Quatrain 1138, Rumi
I am a sculptor, a molder of form.
In every moment I shape an idol.
But then, in front of you, I melt them down
I can rouse a hundred forms
and fill them with spirit,
but when I look into your face,
I want to throw them in the fire.
My souls spills into yours and is blended.
Because my soul has absorbed your fragrance,
I cherish it.
Every drop of blood I spill
informs the earth,
I merge with my Beloved
when I participate in love.
In this house of mud and water,
my heart has fallen to ruins.
Enter this house, my Love, or let me leave.
By Rumi, Divani Shamsi Tabriz

Aceasta fiinta umana este o casa de oaspeti:
In fiecare dimineata, un nou venit.
O bucurie, o intristare, o josnicie,
O priza de constiinta trecatoare, toate apar
Precum un oaspete neasteptat.
Intampina-i si bucura-i pe toti!
Chiar daca sunt un grup de regrete,
Ce-ti zguduie violent casa golita de mobila.
Totusi, trateaza onorabil fiecare oaspete.
El te poate conduce spre o noua incantare.
Gandul intunecat, rusinea, rautatea,
Intampina-le la usa razand,
Si invita-le inauntru.
Fii recunoscator oricarui oaspete ce vine,
Caci fiecare a fost trimis
Ca un ghid de dincolo.

Guest House
of Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi
This being human is a guest house:
Every morning, a newcomer.
A joy, a sorrow, a meanness, a pass into the outlet, all appear like an unexpected guest. Welcomes them and enjoy them all!
Even if a group of regrets, what a violent shake your house empty of furniture. However, treat each guest honorably.
It can lead to a new delight.
Gandul overcast, shame, rautatea, have them at the door laughing,
And invite them in.
Be grateful for any guest who comes
Because each has been sent
As a guide beyond
