It starts singing

Posted on January 4, 2008 by lackhead

When
The violin
Can forgive the past
It starts singing

When the violin can stop worrying
About the future
You will become
such a drunk laughing nuisance
That God
Will lean down
And begin combing you into her hair

When the violin can forgive
Every wound caused by
Others,
The heart starts singing

–Hafiz, The Violin
