Quatrain 125 from Rubaiyat of Saadi Shirazi

Description: English Translation:

Literal:

"It's not the orange from you that we desire, nor the pomelo.
You yourself are sweeter than a pistachio and almond.

Even if there were a pomegranate from your breast and the moon,
nothing would ever be better than your dimples."

Poetic:

"We crave not citrus fruit, no pomelo's sweet,
Your sweetness rivals nut, a tasty treat.

Though pomegranates from your breast might gleam,
No beauty matches your enchanting dimple's gleam."
