Best rumi quotes about love

Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.

Close your eyes, fall in love, stay there.

Love is the bridge between you and everything.

Let the beauty we love be what we do.

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.

Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love.

Be drunk with love, for love is all that exists.

Be soulful. Be kind. Be in love.

Love sometimes wants to do us a great favor: hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.

Lovers have heartaches that can’t be cured by drugs or sleep, or games, but only by seeing their beloved.

Close your eyes, fall in love, stay there.

May these vows and this marriage be blessed.

Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.

You have within you more love than you could ever understand.

When you seek love with all your heart you shall find its echo in the universe.

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.

The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.

Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.

When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you’re not here, I can’t go to sleep.

There is no salvation for the soul but to fall in love. Only lovers can escape out of these two worlds.

This is what love does and continues to do. It tastes like honey to adults and milk to children.

I once had a thousand desires. But in my one desire to know you all else melted away.

rumi quotes love

I have no companion but Love, no beginning, no end, no dawn. The soul calls from within me: ‘You, ignorant of the way of Love, set me free.’

On the path of love we are neither masters nor the owners of our lives. We are only a brush in the hand of the master painter.

If you love someone, you are always joined with them – in joy, in absence, in solitude, in strife.

Whatever happens, just keep smiling and lose yourself in love.

This sky where we live is no place to lose your wings so love, love, love.

Why ever talk of miracles when you are destined to become infinite love.

When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.

I am yours. Don’t give myself back to me.

Let your teacher be love itself.

This is a subtle truth. Whatever you love, you are.

There is a path from me to you that I am constantly looking for.

Let yourself be drawn by the stronger pull of that which you truly love.

Every moment is made glorious by the light of love.

Now I am sober and there’s only the hangover and the memory of love.

I’ve been looking for a long, long time,

for this thing called love,

Then one day I looked inside myself,

and this is what I found,

a golden sun residing there,

beaming forth God’s light and sound.

So silent, because I am constantly talking with you.

Now honored at the head.

You healed my wounded hunger and anger,

and made me a poet who sings about joy.

Blessed are those who understand.

Life blossoms wherever water flows.

Where tears are shed divine mercy is shown.

Coming when others called me, I was lost.

A great silence overcomes me,

and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.

I will be waiting here… For your silence to break, for your soul to shake, for your love to wake.
