Quatrain 105 from Rubaiyat of Saadi Shirazi

Description: English Translation:

Literal:

"Whenever I cast my gaze upon the rose of your face,
I wish to be like a narcissus that never blinks.

Even if I sit among hyacinths and jasmine without you,
I will sit like a violet and not raise my head."

Poetic:

"Whene'er I gaze upon your rosy face,
I'd be a narcissus, still and in its place.

Amidst sweet flowers, lone and all alone,
I'd sit like violets, silent and unknown."
