魯米：Special Plates

Akseli-Gallen-Kallela 畫作

Special Plates / Rumi

特定菜餚 / 魯米

Notice how each particle moves.

Notice how everyone has just arrived here


from a journey.

Notice how each wants a different food.

留意每個原子如何移動。


留意此刻到達這裡的人都經歷了一場旅程。


留意每個人都有自己想要的食物。

Notice how the stars vanish as the sun comes up,


and how all streams stream toward the ocean.

Look at the chefs preparing special plates


for everyone, according to what they need.

留意繁星於日昇時消隱，留意每條河都流向大海。


看那主廚為每人預備他所需要的特定菜餚。


Look at this cup that can hold the ocean.

Look at those who see the face.

看這容得下整座海洋的杯子。


看那些看得見神的臉龐的人。

Look through Shams’ eyes


into the Water that is


entirely jewels.

看，以太陽之眼觀水，水 — 純然寶石。
