#rumipoetry #rumi #sufism #wisdom #death • Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi, better known simply as Rumi, was perhaps the greatest Sufi mystic and the finest Persian poet of all time. He had a great influence on Muslim writing and culture. • It is believed that Rumi would turn round and round while reciting his poetry, and it is this dance which formed the basis for the Whirling Dervishes, after his death. Dervish means doorway, and the dance is believed to be a mystical portal between the earthly and cosmic worlds. • Rumi - When I die • When I die • When my coffin • is being taken out • You must never think • I am missing this world • Don’t shed any tears • Don’t lament or • feel sorry • I’m not falling • into a monster’s abyss • When you see • my corpse is being carried • Don’t cry for my leaving • I’m not leaving • I’m arriving at eternal love • When you leave me • in the grave • Don’t say goodbye • Remember a grave is • only a curtain • for the paradise behind • You’ll only see me • descending into a grave • Now watch me rise • How can there be an end • When the sun sets or • the moon goes down • It looks like the end • It seems like a sunset • But in reality it is a dawn • When the grave locks you up • that is when your soul is freed • Have you ever seen • a seed fallen to earth • not rise with a new life • Why should you doubt the rise • of a seed named human • Have you ever seen • a bucket lowered into a well • coming back empty • Why lament for a soul • When it can come back • like Joseph from the well • When for the last time • you close your mouth • Your words and soul • will belong to the world of • no place no time.
