Great job! Omar Khayyam here is as intoxicating as the original Persian version presumably was!

This page features a new discovery about an unlikely correlation between the Rubaiyat and Kahlil Gibran's, The Prophet. See for yourself!

Nice page. I was wondering, though, if anybody could provide me with the Farsi original (or whatever is closest to it) of what is listed as Quatrain 30 in Fitzgerald's 4th edition; ie "What, without asking, hither hurried Whence? And, without asking, Whither hurried hence! Oh, many a Cup of this forbidden Wine Must drown the memory of that insolence!"

I couldn't find that particular rubaiyat on any of the poetry pages..

I am reading Amin Maalouf's novel Samarkand. It's excellent and inspired me to reread the Rubaiyat and find out more about Omar Khayyam. Your site is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much.

I wish you had more of his life and what he did. My ten year old son is doing a report on him and he can hardly see anything about actually his life. I wish you had more of what he did during that long life. Thank you

I enjoyed this website very much! My family is Iranian, and I had always heard about how incredible Omar Khayyam was. When my English teacher assigned us to write about an ethnic poet of my choice, I knew who I was going to choose, but I did not know where to find the information from. I found this website from a search engine and found everything I needed for my report right here. My parents loved the site as well!

De wereld draait en draait indien lang na dezen uw roem (is) verbleekt uw kennis ooit hoog geprezen gij werd voor uw komen niet gemist na uw vertrek zal het niet anders wezen

in a nutshell world turns & turns when your fame is vanished and also your know-how once praised we did not miss you before you came and when you leave it will not be different

I found your site informative and enlightening. I received a 1908 printing of Rubaiyat as a gift and was curious to learn something of Omar Khayyam's background. You supplied me with this and I thank-you. I am also happy to find the Zarathustra link. Again, thank-you, Derek Kaill Ontario,Canada

Thank you, thank you, thank you. A most beautiful and informative site. My father introduced me to Omar when I was quite young - - I wish he had lived long enough to enjoy your work. I have two questions:

1. Is Mohammad Tajvidi the author of all illustrations here? (The ink brushwork seems a different style than the full color pictures)

2. Will you continue to expand the site? (Please?)

Oh, wait - a third question: Is all this available as a book? I'd like to see you get some fiscal compensation from my enjoyment.
