Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Give me a flagon of red wine, a book of verses, a loaf of bread, and a little idleness. If with such store I might sit by thy dear side in some lonely place, I should deem myself happier than a king in his kingdom.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Thy Return is as another Sun to Heaven; a new Rose blooming in the Garden of the Soul.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam We are thinking about bad only those who are worse than we are, and those who are better than us … I’m just not up to us … One does not follow it than smell roses. Another of the bitter herbs will produce honey. Give bread to one – will remember forever. Another life donation – do not understand.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Wake! For the Sun, who scatter’d into flight The Stars before him from the Field of Night, Drives Night along with them from Heav’n, and strikes The Sultan’s Turret with a Shaft of Light.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam So when that Angel of the darker Drink, at last shall find you by the river-brink, And, offering his Cup, invite your Soul forth to your Lips to quaff-you shall not shrink.

Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam How sad, a heart that does not know how to love, that does not know what it is to be drunk with love. If you are not in love, how can you enjoy the blinding light of the sun, the soft light of the moon?
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Awake, my Little ones, and fill the Cup Before Life’s Liquor in its Cup be dry.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Alas, that Spring should vanish with the Rose! That Youths sweet-scented Manuscript should close!
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Don’t cry upon your losses Don’t measure today with tomorows Don’t trust to be passed and coming day believe in now – and be happy today.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Tomorrow! – Why, tomorrow I may be Myself with yesterday’s sev’n thousand years.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Better be jocund with the fruitful Grape Than sadden after none, or bitter, Fruit.
Omar KhayyamOmar Khayyam Oh Thou, who Man of baser Earth didst make, And ev’n with Paradise devise the snake; For all the Sin wherewith the Face of Man Is blackened – Man’s forgiveness give and take!
