My fleeting lover ........! by Rumi

Bring back to me my fleeting lover
make up excuses, sing her beautiful songs,
convince this exquisite Moon
to come back home.

Do not be deceived by her charming promises
he can easily bewitch water
and tie air into a knot.

But when you see her sun-like face
watch how God's wonders appear!

My heart, go gently and when you find
my priceless treasure
offer her my absolute devotion.

~ Rumi
