MORE BYOmar Khayyam

    man zāhir-e-nestī-o-hastī dānam

    man bātin-e-har-farāz-o-pastī dānam

    iiñ hama az dānish-e-ḳhud baad

    gar martaba-e-varā-e-mastī dānam

    I know the appearance of non-existence and existence, I have knowledge of the inmost secrets of sublimity and lowliness; notwithstanding all my knowledge, shamefulness in this knowledge should be mine, if I did not know the proper place (degree of exaltation) and the wis.om (justice) of inebriation.

    ba in hama az danish-e-KHud baad

    gar martaba-e-wara-e-masti danam

    I know the appearance of non-existence and existence, I have knowledge of the inmost secrets of sublimity and lowliness; notwithstanding all my knowledge, shamefulness in this knowledge should be mine, if I did not know the proper place (degree of exaltation) and the wis.om (justice) of inebriation.
