RUMI: Who keeps secret his inmost thought

When your heart becomes the grave of your secret,
that desire of yours will be gained more quickly.
The Prophet peace be upon him said that anyone
who keeps secret his inmost thought
will soon attain the object of his desire.
When seeds are buried in the earth,
their inward secrets become the flourishing garden.

Mathnawi I, Maulana Jallaluddin Rumi, may Allah sanctify his soul & bless his secret
Version by C. & K. Helminski, 'Rumi: Daylight'
