[75] And when Thyself with shining Foot shall pass

by Omar Khayyam

English version by Edward FitzGerald
Original Language Persian/Farsi

And when Thyself with shining Foot shall pass
Among the Guests Star-scatter'd on the Grass,
     And in your joyous Errand reach the spot
Where I made one -- turn down an empty Glass!

TAMAM SHUD

-- from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, by Omar Khayyam / Translated by Edward FitzGerald
