O birds who've broken free from your cages,
show us your best smiles and enlighten us:
Towards whom are you all flying to?
O ready to deliver love-pregnant lovers,
now that you're ready to give birth
to a new life on your deathbeds,
keep on giving birth over and over again.
Your death is your second coming.
Your death is your rebirth.
Rumi ~ my translation
مرغان که کنون از قفس خویش جدایید
رخ باز نمایید و بگویید کجایید
ای آنک بزادیت چو در مرگ رسیدید
این زادن ثانیست بزایید بزایید
مولانا جلال الدين بلخي رومي
