[Sunlight] "On the bank of the river"

~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the bank of the river,
water is grudged by that one alone
who is blind to the flowing stream.

~~~~~~~~~~

Bar lab-e ju bokhl-e âb ân-râ bovad
ku ze ju-ye âb nâ-binâ bovad

-- Mathnawi II:894
Version by Camille and Kabir Helminski
"Rumi: Daylight"
