The small man
Builds cages for everyone
He
knows.
While the sage,
Who has to duck his head
When the moon is low,
Keeps dropping keys all night long
For the
Beautiful
Rowdy
Prisoners.
~ from THE GIFT by Hafiz, translated by Daniel Ladinsky
Among all the different arts, the art of music has been especially considered divine, because it is the exact miniature of the law working through the whole universe.
~ from THE MYSTICISM OF SOUND by Hazrat Inayat Khan
