RUMI:NEW YEAR INVITATION
The Lily telling its bud:
Wake up! Why are you still sleep?
There is the wine
And the handsome youth
The sweet basil and
The tulips are also raising glasses.
Hyacinth flower
discretely but sweetly whispered in the ear of a hidden flower:
Who's gift is all of this
It is not bestowed by God?

RUMI
from MONAJAT
:
Let me open in the great name of God
A heart,rise and make yourself humble
For nothing in this world is higher than humility
and humility belongs to those who are early risers.
The heart says:Rise and shine!
but the evil inclination whispers: In a moment...
Shake off the evil inclination and get out of bed
It is time to offer The Almighty your praises.
Every morning ,at dawn,the roosters crow in prayer
How would you know it if you were still asleep?
Only those who are awake know this secret.
O Lord,if I ever may be found worthy
Let a sleepless night be the reward for my righteousness
The hour to approach your gate with words of supplication has arrived.
