Quatrain 143 from Rubaiyat of Saadi Shirazi

Description: English Translation:

Literal:

"O child of war, breaker of armies,
until when will you break our hearts like the heart of a non-believer?

It's better for you to see and break the reins (of your horse)
than to break the head of the one you're attacking."

Poetic:

"O warrior child, who breaks the ranks of war,
How long will you shatter hearts, and tear them sore?

Better to see and guide your steed with care,
Than break the head of one who cannot bear."
