Translations of Selected Quatrains from Khayyám's Rubáiyát from Persian

By Sahand Rabbani


This caravan of life marches onward steadfast;
Savor the moments of joy as they rush past.
Why dwell tonight on the trials of tomorrow?
Bring the chalice now for tonight will not last.
این قافله عمر عجب میگذرد
دریاب دمی که با طرب میگذرد
ساقی غم فردای حریفان چه خوری
پیش آر پیاله را که شب میگذرد
