Under thy own life's key: be check'd for silence,

“ما چون دو دریچه روبروی هم
آگاه ز هر بگو مگوی هم
هر روز سلام و پرسش و خنده
هر روز قرار روز آینده

بیش از شب و روز تیر و دی کوتاه

زیرا یکی از دریچه ها بسته ست
نه مهر فسون نه ماه جادو کرد
نفرین به سفر که هرچه کرد او کرد
نفرین به سفر که هرچه کرد او کرد”
― مهدی اخوان ثالث

Look at yourself and remember me.”
― Rumi
