Quatrain 109 from Rubaiyat of Saadi Shirazi

Description: English Translation:

Literal:

"I will rise and see her stature like that of a cypress
and that sun-like radiance of her face.

If they do not allow me to come near,
they will not be able to prevent me from seeing her from afar."

Poetic:

"I'll rise and gaze upon her form so tall,
Her face, a sun, illuminating all.

If near I cannot go, at least my sight,
From far, will drink the beauty of her light."
