Came across this on BBC...

I was reading the news and came across this quote from Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi's writings, a Balkh (what is now Afghanistan) Islamic poet who lived in the 1200s. He often wrote of the spiritual love between God and man.

I
f the sky is not in love, then it will not be so clear. If the sun is not in love, then it will not be giving any light. If the river is not in love, then it will be in silence, it will not be moving. If the mountains, the earth are not in love, then there will be nothing growing.
