Rumi ~ Don’t plant anything but Love

2-minute video from Enea Bozeglav

Lyrics

When you plant a tree
every leaf that grows will tell you,
what you sow will bear fruit.

So if you have any sense, my friend
don’t plant anything but love.

You show your worth by what you seek.
Water flows to those who want purity

Wash your hands of all desires and
come to the table of Love.

Do you want me to tell you a secret?
The flowers attract the most beautiful lover
with their sweet smile and scent.

If you let God weave the verse in your poem
people will read it forever.

~ Rumi
