An old shaykh said to a prostitute: “You’re drunk.
Every moment your foot is caught in another snare.”
She replied: “Oh shaykh, what you say about me is true.
But what of you? Are you the man you seem to be?”
Oh issuer of fatwas, we are more effective than you.
In all our drunkenness, we have a clearer head than you.
You drink people’s blood, we drink blood of the vine.
Tell the truth. Which of us is more blood-thirsty?》
(Songs of Khayyam, 3)
. 《شیخی به زنی فاحشه گفتا: مستی.
هر لحظه به دام دگری پابستی؛
گفتا؛ شیخا، هر آن‌چه گویی هستم،
آیا تو چنان‌که می‌نمایی هستی؟

  • ای صاحب فتوی، ز تو پرکارتریم،
    با این‌همه مستی، از تو هشیارتریم؛
    تو خونِ کسان خوری و ما خونِ رَزان،
    انصاف بده؛ کدام خونخوارتریم؟》
    (ترانه‌های خیام)
