Ruba'i No. 22: I clung to her tresses out of need. *(Attributed to several poets)

رباعی شماره ۲۲: در سنبلش آویختم از روی نیاز *(منتسب به چند نفر)

I clung to his/her tress out of need,

I said, 'Resolve the affair of me, the love-stricken.'

در سنبلش آویختم از روی نیاز

گفتم من سودازده را کار بساز

He/she said, 'Take my lips and leave my tress,'

'(Find pleasure) in a joyous embrace, not in a long life.'

گفتا که لبم بگیر و زلفم بگذار

در عیش خوش‌آویز نه در عمر دراز
