Quatrain 3

Quatrain 3 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

The Quran, which they call the supreme word divine

Is read at times, not continuously all the time

قرآن که مهین کلام خوانند آن را

گه‌گاه نه بر دوام خوانند آن را

But on the wine cup's rim there's a verse that shines

Which everywhere and always everyone recites

بر گِردِ پیاله، آیتی هست مقیم

کاندر همه‌جا مدام خوانند آن را
