Quatrain 40
Quatrain 40 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
If fortune's root has grown your eternal tree
If life fits your form like garments snug and free
گر شاخِ بقا ز بیخِ بختت رُسْتهست
ور بر تنِ تو، عُمْر، لباسی چُسْت است
In body's tent that serves as your shelter here
Lean not, for its pegs are loose, as you can see
در خیمهٔ تن که سایبانیست تو را
هان تکیه مکن که چارمیخش سُسْت است
