224. HIS MUSIC

I am in love and want the world to see.

I have carved the many names of God

onto all the trees

within the sacred grove of my heart from

which His music plays.

I am in love and want the world to hear.

I have no doubt His music will charm

tiger and lion, snake and bullet ant,

disarm logger and poacher,

bandit and tax collector.

From a folk song, Senegal

225. LOVE’S BEAUTY

Were I to promise love in a hundred thousand languages, love’s beauty far surpasses all such stammerings.

Jalal al-Din Rumi (1207–73), Persia

226. TRANSFORMATIONS

Love turns a battery of stings into a paradise of honey. Love sets the slave on a golden throne.

Modern inspiration from Turkey

227. THE ASTROLABE OF GOD’S MYSTERIES

The lover’s ailment is not like any other; Love is the astrolabe of God’s mysteries. Whether Love is from heaven or earth,

it points to God.

Jalal al-Din Rumi (1207–73), Persia
