More From Khalil Gibran

God is alpha and omega in the great world: endeavor to make him so in the little world; make him thy evening epilogue and thy morning prologue; practice to make him thy last thought at night when thou sleepest, and thy first thought in the morning when thou awakest; so shall thy fancy be sanctified in the night, and thy understanding rectified in the day; so shall thy rest be peaceful, thy labors prosperous, thy life pious, and thy death glorious.
God Morning Night
If thy faith have no doubts, thou has just cause to doubt thy faith; and if thy doubts have no hope, thou hast just reason to fear despair; when therefore thy doubts shall exercise thy faith, keep thy hopes firm to qualify thy doubts; so shall thy faith be secured from doubts; so shall thy doubts be preserved from despair.
Faith Exercise Doubt
If thou neglectest thy love to thy neighbor, in vain thou professest thy love to god; for by thy love to god, the love to thy neighbor is begotten, and by the love to thy neighbor thy love to god is nourished.
Charity Neighbor Vain
The worldly wisdom of the foolish man is like a sieve, that does alone retain the grosser substance of the worthless bran: but thou, my soul, let thy brave thoughts disdain so coarse a purchase: o be thou a fan to purge the chaff, and keep the winnow'd grain: make clean thy thoughts, and dress thy mixt desires: thou art heav'n's tasker, and thy god requires the purest of thy flow'r, as well as of thy fires.
Art Men Foolish Man
If with love thy heart has burned; if thy love is unreturned; hide thy grief within thy breast, though it tear thee unexpressed; for when love has once departed from the eyes of the false-hearted, and one by one has torn off quite the bandages of purple light; though thou wert the loveliest form the soul had ever dressed, thou shalt seem, in each reply, a vixen to his altered eye; thy softest pleadings seem too bold, thy praying lute will seem to scold; though thou kept the straightest road, yet thou errest far and broad.
Love Grief Heart
Thy husband is thy lord, thy life, thy keeper, thy head, thy sovereign; one that cares for thee, and for thy maintenance commits his body to painful labour both by sea and land, to watch the night in storms, the day in cold, whilst thou liest warm at home, secure and safe; and craves no other tribute at thy hands but love, fair looks and true obedience; too little payment for so great a debt.
