A Rumi Poem
Music composed by Garo Altinian
English version by Coleman Barks

lyrics

YESTERDAY I SENT A MESSAGE

Yesterday I sent a message
as clear and steady as a star.
I showed you the longing,
rocked my own chest,
like an infant to hush it from crying.

You that turns stones to gold
change me.

Take me to love’s first place
where you and I were in union.
How much longer, do I wander
far away, apart from you?

I will be patient now
waiting for you to turn and look.
