“من نمي دانم
_ و همين درد مرا سخت مي آزارد_
كه چرا انسان اين دانا
اين پيغمبر
:در تكاپوهايش
_چيزي از معجزه آن سو تر_
ره نبرده ست به اعجاز محبت
چه دليلي دارد؟
*
چه دليلي دارد
كه هنوز
مهرباني را نشناخته است؟
و نمي داند در يك لبخند
!چه شگفتي هايي پنهان است
*
من بر آنم كه درين دنيا
_خوب بودن _به خدا
سهل ترين كارست
و نمي دانم
كه چرا انسان
تا اين حد
با خوبي
.بيگانه است
!و همين درد مرا سخت مي آزارد”
― فریدون مشیری

A flask of wine, a loaf of bread and thou

Better go drunk and begging round the taverns.

Then is the time, my love, to pour the wine;
Houris and palaces and Heaven and Hell-
These are but fairy-tales, forget them all.”
― Omar Khayyám

Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling:

از بهاي آزادي آدمي افزون باشد.”
