Until You've Found Pain

Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi 1207 (Balkh) – 1273 (Konya )

Until you've found pain, you won't reach the cure
Until you've given up life, you won't unite with
the supreme soul
Until you've found fire inside yourself, like the Friend,
You won't reach the spring of life, like Khezr.
