“I saw Sorrow
holding a cup of pain.
I said, hey sorrow,
sorry to see you this way.
What’s troubling you?
What’s with the cup?
Sorrow said,
what else can I do?
All this Joy that you have brought to the world has killed my business completely.”

_{rumi’s almost perfect. i can get lost reading rumi for days.}

_{Wish i could read arabic.. a) because it looks so pretty:) and b) because although the translations i’m sure are great, nothing really moves perfectly from one language to another:)}
