Full Poem:

Should heartache enter your mind and ambush your joy,
yet it prepares the way for happiness.

Quickly it sweeps all others out of the house
so that joy may come to you from the Source of good.

It shakes the yellow leaves from the branch of the heart,
so that fresh leaves can grow continuously.

It pulls up the root of old happiness
so that a new ecstasy may stroll in from Yonder.

Heartache pulls up withered and crooked roots
so that no root may remain concealed.

Though heartache may extract many things from the heart,
It will bring something better in return.

~ Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi
