A little Rubaiyat

March 6th, 2006 | by Joe |

Just a little fragment of verse for this evening:

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.

from the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

    Una bonita manera de describir el paso del tiempo (tan raudo) y la duración de la belleza (un suspiro).

    Un saludo,
