Ruba'i No. 11: At first, it was loyalty that granted me union.
رباعی شماره ۱۱: اول به وفا می وصالم درداد
First, with loyalty, he gave me the wine of union,
When I became intoxicated, he offered me the cup of cruelty.
اول به وفا می وصالم درداد
چون مست شدم جام جفا را سرداد
With eyes full of tears and a heart full of fire,
I became the dust of his path, he gave me to the wind.
پر آب دو دیده و پر از آتش دل
خاک ره او شدم به بادم برداد
Ruba'i No. 11: At first, it was loyalty that granted me union.
