Rubaiyat

The cheerful wisdom of Omar Khayyam's quatrains does not diminish with the ages: the rubaiyat intoxicate, like the wine praised by the poet, they are tender, bold, and inspired. Love experiences, hedonistic advice, philosophical and religious reflections, guidance in life wisdom, and rare freedom of spirit - these are the distinctive features of the immortal lines of the Persian sage, skillfully translated into Russian.
