8 LOVE POEMS BY RUMI FOR YOUR WEDDING VOWS
POEMS BY RUMI FOR YOUR WEDDING VOWS
These sublime and love filled poems by the Persian Sufi Mystic “Rumi” are a gift of the highest kind to humanity. Some five years ago I was gifted the Rumi Oracle and since then this beautiful present has been by my side each day and has brought me joy and transformation in magical ways. Rumi’s sacred language has lovingly and soulfully guided me and I feel so delighted and honoured in sharing his wisdom and words with you. Wishing you all the best for your wedding vows.
1.
The spring of love arrives
to transform the dust into a garden.
The call is heard from the heavens
To bid the wings of soul to fly
The sea becomes filled with pearls.
The dry land received the water of life.
The stone becomes a ruby,
And the body becomes all soul.
2.
Love, like life, flows
through the heart.
Feel the thrill of the flow
and say nothing.
3.
I was dead; I became alive.
I was tears; I became laughter.
The power of love arrived
and made me everlasting power!
4.
O Love!
How divine is your luring!
Beauty flows from your unseen face!
Your very nature is radiant with joy!
You manifest vibrant hue in every flower!
Your touch dazzles all creations!
Every particle is attracted towards you,
longing to unite
and dwell in you!
5.
Only the oneness of love and the lover is eternal.
Surrender your heart into this union,
For all else in this world is momentary
6.
"Tell me the truth”, I asked love.
“What are you?”
“I am the everlasting life”, love said,
“I am the recurring joy of living”.
7.
The logical mind runs away from drowning.
Lovers accept drowning
In the sea as their destiny.
The logical mind finds consolation
In reaching a level of comfort in life.
Lovers are focused beyond their own comfort.
8.
I can never leave you,
Not for a moment,
Not for an hour.
You are in everything I do.
You are my everything
My drink is your sweetness.
I move to your command.
I am a surrendered prey in your hands,
And you are my consuming lion.
Your soul and my soul
Are truly One Soul.
I long for no one but you.
In the garden of your grace,
I am only a terminating sprout.
The crown of my blooming
Is the desire to be in your arms.
