In The Spirit Of Rumi-13 Poem by Michael Shepherd

In The Spirit Of Rumi-13



I said to My Beloved

O my dearest One,
tell me of angels

My Beloved said

When you are awake,
you hear of angels and
wonder about angels

When you dream,
the heaven is full of angels

When you are deep asleep
you are that angel

of this your dreams
remind you

When you awaken,
remember this

Then you will have wings
and fly over these three worlds
as one

said My Beloved

If someone slipped this into one of my Rumi books, I'd think it was...Rumi. I don't think you need the last 'said My Beloved'...thanks for the spirit-of 'translation'
