Sanskrit blog-A verse of Umarkhayyam

 

उमरखय्यम उवाच

तरोरधश्चेद्यदि मुष्टिमानमन्नं सुरायाः चषकं च काव्यम् ।

त्वं गानलोला मम पार्श्वतोऽसि स्वर्गायते काननमेव कान्ते।।

 

Fitzgerald’s rendering in English of original in Persian:

 

Here with a Loaf of Bread beneath the Bough,
A Flask of Wine, a Book of Verse--and Thou
   Beside me singing in the Wilderness--
And Wilderness is Paradise enow.
