Come you lost Atoms to your Centre draw,
And be the Eternal Mirror that you saw:
Rays that have wander'd into Darkness wide
Return and back into your Sun subside.

More quotes by Attar of Nishapur

Do all you can to become a bird of the Way to God;
Do all you can to develop your wings and your feathers.

Since I have neither sign nor name
I shall speak only of things unnamed and without sign.

The sea
Will be a sea
Whatever the drop's philosophy.

All things are but masks at God's beck and call,
They are symbols that instruct us that God is all.

From each a mystic silence Love demands.
