Rubaiyat

Omar Khayyam was born in the city of Nishapur in 1048. His biography is shrouded in legends, myths, and conjectures. He was a poet, mathematician, philosopher, physicist, and astronomer, under whose guidance the most accurate solar calendar of that time... was created. The title of the most famous poet of the East, read all over the world, was brought to him by his aphoristic quatrains – rubaiyat, which have become the spiritual heritage of humanity. In his aphoristic verses, Omar Khayyam reflects on the meaning of life, the vulnerability of man in the face of fate, the fleeting moments of joy; he celebrates wisdom, love, and beauty. Regardless of nationality, religion, and culture, everyone finds something personal, secret, and unspoken in them.
