Quote by Jalāl ad-Dīn Rūmī

“Pray, pray always: Prayer and adoration are your breath. If your breathing stops a moment, your life will end. The soul in its exile longs for its kingdom beyond space – Why does its animal half feed so long in fields of death? Your essential soul is noble; how long will you look in darkness? You are the royal eagle: Listen, the King is whistling for you”

“Why shall I speak of the damage of love? When it rejuvenates me just as much In love, people happen to say too much, But for me, words do not work as my crutch I reminisce the time I fell in love, As my remaining days go passing by I’ve realised the only love I now feel The unrequited, as the end draws nigh But what was so unusual about you? An epiphany unveiled at one sunrise: In darkness ere, I had craved for light Yet stars were situated in your eyes It was in the moment I gazed upon A face fashioned by the hands of nature There isn’t much left to my regret now, As lost moments cannot be recaptured.”
