New Rubaei Posted: Quatrain 136 from Rubaiyat of Saadi Shirazi

Description: English Translation:

Literal:

"Every day, in a new way and with a different grace,
the more I look at you, the more beautiful you become.

I said I would take you to the judge to reclaim my heart,
but I fear you will steal the judge's heart as well."

Poetic:

"Each day a fresh beauty you display,
With every glance, you steal my heart away.

I'd bring you to a judge, my heart to claim,
But fear you'd steal his heart and do the same."
