Omar Khayyam’s verse:
And, as the Cock crew, those who stood before
The Tavern shouted – “Open then the Door.
You know how little while have to stay,
And, once departed, may return no more.”

Omar Khayyam’s verse:
I sometimes think that never blows so red
The Rose as where some buried Caesar bled;
That every Hyacinth the Garden wears
Dropt in its Lap from some once lovely Head.

Omar Khayyam’s verse:
And this delightful Herb whose tender green
Fledges the River’s Lip on which we lean –
Ah, lean upon it lightly! For who knows
From what once lovely Lip it springs unseen!

Omar Khayyam’s verse:
Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend,
Before we too into the Dust Descend;
Dust into Dust, and under Dust, to lie,
Sans Wine, sans Song, sans Singer and – sans End!

Omar Khayyam’s verse:
Oh, come with old Khayyam, and leave the Wise
To talk; one thing is certain, that Life flies;
One thing is certain, and the Rest is lies;
The Flower that once has blown for ever dies.

Omar Khayyam’s verse:
What without asking, hither hurried whence?
And, without asking, whither hurried hence!
Another and another Cup to drown
The Memory of this Impertinence!
