Quatrain 20
Quatrain 20 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
Before you and I, nights and days have been here
The turning wheel of heaven had its career
پیش از من و تو لیل و نهاری بودهست
گردنده فلک نیز به کاری بوده است
Wherever you step upon this earth's face
That was once the eye-pupil of a beauty dear
هر جا که قدم نهی تو بر روی زمین
آن مردمک چشم نگاری بودهست
