“Listen,, O drop,, give yourself up without regret,,
and in exchange gain the Ocean..
Listen,, O drop,, bestow upon yourself this honor,,
and in the arms of the Sea be secure..
Who indeed should be so fortunate?..
An Ocean wooing a drop!..
In God's name,, in God's name,, sell and buy at once!..
Give a drop,, and take this Sea full of pearls.”
................... Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi
