Quatrain 165
Quatrain 165 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
If on hope's branch I found some fruit to hold
My life's thread would find its end foretold
بر شاخ امید اگر بری یافتمی
هم رشته خویش را سری یافتمی
How long in being's prison must I stay?
Would I could find a door to void's threshold
تا چند ز تنگنای زندان وجود
ای کاش سوی عدم دری یافتمی
