Poem: The Breeze at Dawn, Rumi

The Breeze at Dawn - Rumi

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don't go back to sleep.


You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep.


People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.


The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep.

Excerpt from the translation of Rumi by Coleman Barks
