Quatrain 101 from Rubaiyat of Saadi Shirazi

Description: English Translation:

Literal:

"That friend whose sight adorns the eye,
whose absence weeps.

For seeing them, we need eyes,
and if we don't see the friend, what use are eyes?"

Poetic:

"A friend whose gaze, my eyes with joy does light,
Whose absence leaves me weeping through the night.

For them, my eyes were given, it is plain,
Without them, what is sight, or joy, or pain?"
