the soul was the song itself








I live my life in growing orbits which move out over this wondrous world, I am circling around God, around ancient towers and I have been circling for a thousand years.

And I still don't know if I am an eagle or a storm or a great song.


―Rainer Maria Rilke

People say that the soul, on hearing the song of creation, entered the body, but in reality the soul was the song itself.  


—Hafiz
