about

A Rumi Poem in Turkish
Music composed by Garo Altinian

lyrics

Cömertlikde, yardım etmede, Akar su gibi ol
Şefkât ve merhametde, Güneş gibi ol

Ya olduğun gibi görün
Ya göründüğün gibi ol

Başkalarının kusurunu örtmede, Gece gibi ol
Hiddet ve asabiyetde, Ölü gibi ol

Tevazuda ve alçak gönüllülükde, Toprak gibi ol
Herşeyi hoş görmede, Deniz gibi ol

Seven Lessons

With generosity and helpfulness
Be like the flowing water

With compassion and forgiveness
Be like the shining sun

When seeing faults in others
Be like the night

When angered and irritated
Be like a corpse

In humility and modesty
Be like the earth (under our feet)

In tolerance and patience
Be like the (vast) ocean

Either appear as you are
Or be as you appear
