Quatrain 149

Quatrain 149 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

That palace that touched the heavens high

Where kings would bow as they passed by

آن قصر که با چرخ همی‌زد پهلو

بر درگه آن شهان نهادندی رو

We saw upon its battlements today

A dove that cooed 'Where? Where?' with sigh

دیدیم که بر کنگره‌اش فاخته‌ای

بنشسته همی‌گفت که کوکو کوکو
