Omar Khayyam Poem by Vladimir Marku

As I was sleeping I chanced Omar Khayyam
He was well over himself, but his words sensed
Leave aside your anger, and let's drink, he said
So the blessed peace in our souls sets.

Forget the toil, despair and insults
Even without them life is so short
And if you have walked so far
Khayyam pleads you, with wine a relationship start.

By tossing cups and kissing girls
Let's enjoy every beautiful day on earth
Love is worthless without them
Love is noble, o friend!

Come on; raise your cup, o lad
World is the life inside yourself you live
And if thousands of time they ask for apology
Oh more and more you deserve.

As I was sleeping I chanced Omar Khayyam
He was well over himself, but his words sensed
And I followed him for awhile
To make company with the amber cups.
