You, who leave this mortal world riding upon the horse of immortality: you are wise, you see the way, you follow your knowingness. Not burdened by physicality, not lured by any baits and traps -- freeing yourself from disappointment, you travel in fulfillment. Not like reason, petty and small, not like ego, full of spite, not like the earthly animal spirit -- you travel as pure life-force. Woven of heavenly thread, brilliant like the moon; you’ve found the path and journey to the unseen. Your temperament, like spring water, has added its scent, its color, to the earth - so that no one will think that you travel without leaving your mark. RUMI
