“O friend, for the morrow let us not worry
This moment we have now, let us not hurry
When our time comes, we shall not tarry
With seven thousand-year-olds, our burden carry”
― Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

“How much more of the mosque, of prayer and fasting?
Better go drunk and begging round the taverns.
Khayyam, drink wine, for soon this clay of yours
Will make a cup, bowl, one day a jar.
When once you hear the roses are in bloom,
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.”

“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”

“To all of us the thought of heaven is dear ---
Why not be sure of it and make it here?
No doubt there is a heaven yonder too,
But 'tis so far away --- and you are near.”
― Edward Fitzgerald's The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
