Khayyam The Philosophical poet | رباعیات خیام |Poem #47 + English Translation

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

All mortal ken is bounded by the veil,
To see beyond man's sight is all too frail;
Yea! earth's dark bosom is his only home:—
Alas! 'twere long to tell the doleful tale.

در پرده اسرار کسی را ره نیست
زین تعبیه جان هیچکس آگه نیست
جز در دل خاک هیچ منزلگه نیست
می خور که چنین فسانه‌ها کوته نیست
