Light Up The Fire Poem By Rumi

Light Up The Fire 

    - By Rumi

I gaze into the heart, lowly it may be,
Thought the words be higher still.
For the heart is all the substance,
The speech an accident.

How many phrases will you speak,
Too many for me.
How much burning, burning will you feel,
Be friendly with the fire, enough for me.

Light up the fire of love inside,
And blaze the thoughts away.

At The Twilight Poem By Rumi

At The Twilight 


     - By Rumi

At the twilight, a moon appeared in the sky;
Then it landed on earth to look at me.

Like a hawk stealing a bird at the time of prey;
That moon stole me and rushed back into the sky.

I looked at myself, I did not see me anymore;
For in that moon, my body turned as fine as soul.

The nine spheres disappeared in that moon;
The ship of my existence drowned in that sea.

Bad Dreams Poem By Rumi

Bad Dreams 

         -  By Rumi


One day you will look back

and laugh at yourself.

You'll say,

'I can't believe I was so asleep!

How did I ever forget the truth?

How ridiculous to believe

that sadness and sickness

Are anything other than bad dreams.'

The Breeze at Dawn Poem By Rumi

The Breeze at Dawn 

-By 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.

The Guest House Poem by Rumi

The Guest House Poem by Rumi is one of the well known poem that has been recited all around the world. The words of Rumi set chord with your heart and you just enjoy them.

The Guest House Poem 

  - By Rumi 

 This being human is a guest house. 
Every morning a new arrival. 

 A joy, a depression, a meanness, 
Some momentary awareness comes 
As an unexpected visitor. 

 Welcome and entertain them all! 
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows, 
Who violently sweep your house 
Empty of its furniture. 
Still treat each guest honorably, 
He may be clearing you out 
For some new delight. 

 The dark though, the shame, the malice, 
Meet them at the door laughing, 
And invite them in. 

 Be grateful for whoever comes, 
Because each has been sent 
As a guide from beyond.
