Additional quotes by Omar Khayyám

عاشر من الناس كبار العقول
وجانب الجهال أهل الفضول
واشرب نقيع السم من عاقل
واسكب على الأرض دواء الجهول

ای آمده از عالم روحانی تفت
حیران شده در چهار و پنج و شش و هفت
می خور چو ندانی ز کجا آمده ای
خوش باش ندانی به کجا خواهی رفت

will depart from your body and you will
be drawn behind the curtain that floats between us
and the unknown. While you wait for that moment, be happy,
because you don't know where you came from and
you don't know where you will be going.
