Quatrain 128
Quatrain 128 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
The sun in clay I cannot hide away
Time's secrets I cannot speak or say
خورشید به گِل نَهُفت مینتوانم
و اسرار زمانه گفت مینتوانم
From thought's deep sea my reason brought to light
A pearl that fear keeps me from display
از بحر تفکرم برآورد خرد
دُرّی که ز بیم سُفت مینتوانم
