Quatrain 72
Quatrain 72 from Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
Until you walk the dervish path divine
Wash not your face with heart's blood, you'll not shine
تا راهِ قلندری نپویی نشود
رخساره به خونِ دل نشویی نشود
Why scheme and plot? Until like those heart-burned
Free yourself from self, no peace you'll find
سودا چه پزی؟ تا که چو دلسوختگان
آزاد به تَرکِ خود نگویی نشود
