بنگر ز جهان چه طرف بربستم ، هيچ
وزحاصل ايام چه در دستم ، هيچ
شمع طربم ولي چو بنشستم ، هيچ
خود جام جم ام ولي چو بشکستم ، هيچ
خاقاني


Behold ! what pleasure I took from the world, naught.
what I gained from passing of time, naught.
I've been a candle in your gathering of joy,
while I'm going out, what happens? naught.
I'm as "Cup of Jamshid" (showing you everything)
if I break what will happen? ... naught.

Very telling capture. Nicely Done. karmankwarner · 2011-03-05: 22:42
