Divan-e Shams by Rumi, in audio recordings by افسر آریا
What excuses have you to offer, my heart, for so many shortcomings? Such constancy on the part of the Beloved, such unfaithfulness on your own!
I have come so that, tugging your ear, I may draw you to me, unheart and unself you, plant you in my heart and soul.
Morn-arising friends, who is there that discovers the dawn, who discovers us dancing in confusion like atoms?
Though the whole world be full of thorns, the heart of the lover is wholly a rosebower;
Say, do not despair because the Beloved drives you away; if He drives you away today, will He not call you back tomorrow?
All slept, and yet sleep did not transport me, heart-forlorn as I am; all night my eyes counted the stars in the sky.
In this cold and rain the Beloved is sweeter, the Beauty in the bosom, and Love in the brain.
Did I not say to you, “Go not there, for I am your friend; in this mirage of annihilation I am the fountain of life?”
Stealthily as the soul, you are going in the midst of my soul; O luster of my garden, you are my gracefully moving cypress.
See how every particle of the world is passing by, see how everyone has arrived from a journey;
Sweetly parading you go—my soul of soul, go not without me; life of your friends, enter not the garden without me.
My soul, why do you tarry so long in the land of exile? Return from this exile; how long will you be dispersed?
