In this series of poems, I'll gather the great philosophical poet, known as Khayyam's poems
his poetry is simple, short and deep




Though Moslems for my sins condemn and chide me,
Like heathens to my idol I confide me;
Yea, when I perish of a drunken bout,
I'll call on wine, whatever doom betide me.

هر چند كه از گناه بدبختم و زشت.
نوميد نيم چو بت پرستان ز كنشت
. اما سحري كه ميرم از مخموري .
مي خواهم و معشوق،چه دوزخ چه بهشت
