Quatrain 29

Quatrain 29 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

Since nothing of all that is yields but wind in hand

Since all that exists bears flaw and breaks in the end

چون نیست ز هر چه هست جز باد به دست

چون هست به هر چه هست نقصان و شکست

Imagine that all that is in this world is naught

Think that all that is not in this world exists grand

انگار که هر چه هست در عالم نیست

پندار که هر چه نیست در عالم هست
