This Intimate Secret

Filed in: Quotes 51-75 Authors M-R
The truth
that You desire me,
that You long for me
in the heart of my heart
this intimate secret now I know.

Why You make me cry,
this intimate secret now I know.

In this act of light and shadow
why You play hide and seek
in the heart of my heart
this intimate secret now I know.

All day amidst myriads actions,
in infinite disguises
You keep beckoning me
why so - this intimate secret now I know.

After all the transactions are finished
where You navigate this last boat away
this intimate secret now I know.

The truth
that you desire me,
that You long for me
in the heart of my heart
this intimate secret now I know.

Rumi
