When I Die Poem By Rumi Lyrics
When I Die,
When My Coffin is Carried Out.,
You Must Never Think
I Am Missing This World.
Do Not Shed Any Tears,
Do Not Lament OR
Feel Sorry,
I Am Not Falling
Into A Monster’s Abyss.
When You See
My Corpse Carried Out,
Do Not Cry For My Leaving,
For I Am Not Leaving,
I Am Arriving At Eternal Love.
When You Leave Me
In The Grave,
Do Not Say Goodbye.
Remember A Grave is
Only A Curtain
For The Paradise Behind.
You Will Only See Me
Descending Into A Grave,
Now Watch Me Rise -
How Can There Be An End
When The Sun Sets,
Or The Moon Goes Down.
It Looks Like The End,
It Seems Like A Sunset,
But in Reality it is a Dawn
When The Grave Locks You Up,
That is When Your Soul is Freed.
Have You Ever Seen A Seed,
Planted in Earth,
Not Rise With New Life?
Why Should You Doubt The Rise
Of A Seed Name Human?
Have You Ever Seen
A Bucket Lowered Into A Well
Come Back Empty?
Why Lament For A Soul
When It Can Come Back
Like Joseph From The Well?
When For The Last Time
You Close Your Mouth,
Your Words And Soul
Will Belong To The World
Of No Place No And Time
- Rumi (13th Century Scholar)
