what do youi think of these spritual poems of Rumi(a great muslim spritual poet)?

Question

As salt resolved in the ocean
I was swallowed in God's sea,
Past faith, past unbelieving,
Past doubt, past certainty.
Suddenly in my bosom
A star shone clear and bright;
All the suns of heaven
Vanished in that star's light

Happy the one who has become like us;
who has become all surrender and contenment;
Who has become the pledge of love and madness;
who has become a jewel in the sea of purity.


Come, come, whoever you are.
Wonderer, worshipper, lover of leaving.
It doesn't matter.
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vow
a thousand times
Come, yet again, come, come.

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that

you have built against it.”


Lord, said David, since you do not need us,
why did you create these two worlds?
Reality replied: O prisoner of time,
I was a secret treasure of kindness and generosity,
and I wished this treasure to be known,
so I created a mirror: its shining face, the heart;
its darkened back, the world;
The back would please you if you've never seen the face.
Has anyone ever produced a mirror out of mud and straw?
Yet clean away the mud and straw,
and a mirror might be revealed.
Until the juice ferments a while in the cask,
it isn't wine. If you wish your heart to be bright,
you must do a little work.
My King addressed the soul of my flesh:
You return just as you left.
Where are the traces of my gifts?
We know that alchemy transforms copper into gold.
This Sun doesn't want a crown or robe from God's grace.
He is a hat to a hundred bald men,
a covering for ten who were naked.
Jesus sat humbly on the back of a donkey, my child!
How could a zephyr ride an donkey?
Spirit, find your way, in seeking lowness like a stream.
Reason, tread the path of selflessness into eternity.
Remember God so much that you are forgotten.
Let the caller and the called disappear;
be lost in the Call.


We are as the flute, and the music in us is from thee;
we are as the mountain and the echo in us is from thee.
We are as pieces of chess engaged in victory and defeat:
our victory and defeat is from thee, O thou whose qualities are comely!
Who are we, O Thou soul of our souls,
that we should remain in being beside thee?
We and our existences are really non-existence;
thou art the absolute Being which manifests the perishable.
We all are lions, but lions on a banner:
because of the wind they are rushing onward from moment to moment.
Their onward rush is visible, and the wind is unseen:
may that which is unseen not fail from us!
Our wind whereby we are moved and our being are of thy gift;
our whole existence is from thy bringing into being.

mosalmanan, mosalmanan, mosalmani ze sar girid

che noor ast in? che jan ast in? che maho aftab ast in?
magar an yare khalvat joo, ze kooho sar miayad?
well Islam is a beautiful religion and Rumi talks about it alot in his poets:
about prophet:
az mahe oo mah shekaft!
didane oo bar nataft!
about the shaqol qamar
midooni age ye eddeh ke esme khodeshoono mizaran muslim(va shayad kheyli ham zaher sazi konand) adam haye khoobi nistand, in dalil bar chizi nemisheh.
oon ha donbale Islam(submission to his will) nistand oona donbale poolo ghodrato havahaye nafsanishoonand. in too hameye
religion ha hast va khahad bood, tarikhe christianity ro negah kon.
oon ha ham zaher saz dashtand.
