Omar Khayyam Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Introduction "Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend, Before we too into the Dust descend; Dust into Dust, and under Dust, to lie, Sans Wine, sans Song, sans Singer, and- sans End!" ( The Rubaiyat , XXIII) Omar Khayyam was born in Nishapur, Persia (now Iran) on 18 May 1040 although this is only a purported date and some claim that it was 1023. He studied geometry and astronomy and in Samarkand worked for the chief magistrate and the ruler of Bokhara, Shamsolmolk Nasr. He went on to enter the service of Saljuq Sultan Malekshah (who ruled between 1072 and 1092). He also traveled to Mecca and Baghdad before returning to Nishapur. With his great expertise in the study of the stars he helped to construct an observatory and compile a set of astronomical tables upon which was based a new calendar era. As such Khayyam’s contemporary reputation was as a scientist. Of the scientific works he produced some still survive. He died in December 1131, but again some historians have given a different date: 1123. Khayyam’s times were hazardous ones due to the Saljuq Turks who were finishing off their infiltration of Iran, Mesopotamia and Asia Minor when he was young and by the time he died they were completing their empire stretching from the River Oxus to Syria. In these turbulent times Khayyam’s verse gives the reader a sense of logic and clarity. The poems of

    Extractions: Free Wisdom Online Omar Khayyam Up from Earth's centre through the Seventh Gate I rose, and on the throne of Saturn sate, And many knots unravel'd by the road; But not the knot of human death and fate. Abu ol-Fath ebn-Ebrahim 'Omar ol-Khayyami of Nishapur Edward FitzGerald's 19th century translation of the Rubaiyat is the only English translation currently in the public domain (and the only one you can easily find on the Web). Unfortunately, this is probably one of the least accurate translations ever made. Some of FitzGerald's translations are only vaguely related to the originals, some are simply made up. FitzGerald himself referred to his work as "transmogrification". It does give you the feeling of Khayyam, though, and is makes a very pleasant reading, so it might be a good place to start. If you are interested in more accurate renderings, see the translation by Robert Graves and Omar Ali-Shah (London : Cassell, 1968) or by by Peter Avery and John Heath-Stubbs (London : A. Lane, 1979).

Awake Morning: For the sun behind yon eastern height.] II Before the phantom of False morning died, Methought a Voice within the Tavern cried, "When all the Temple is prepared within, Why lags the drowsy Worshipper outside?" III And, as the Cock crew, those who stood before The Tavern shouted - "Open then the Door! You know how little while we have to stay, And, once departed, may return no more."

    Extractions: Omar Kayyhâm Accueil Robaiyat 1 a 10 Sufi Music Omar Khayyâm naquit dans le Khorassan, près de la ville de Nichapour vers l'an 1040 de l'ère chrétienne. Ses Robaiyats sont des quatrains , à qui la langue Française fait perdre de l eur beauté, car le Perse et sa calligraphie en sont un écrin qui reste hélas inaccessible à nos yeux et nos oreilles. Vin (mot qui revient souvent) est à prendre dans son sens spirituel, le vin divin qui enivre et vous "évade" de la dualité. On retrouve ici , le lâcher prise, l'abandon total à ce qui est, ici et maintenant. Seul " Un " existe pour Khayyâm. Khayyâm est un désespéré qui se masque d'un sourire dès qu'un sanglot l'étrangle. Cette sérénité douloureuse, il ne l'a pas conquise sans efforts, sans blessures. Durant toute sa vie, il cherche la vérité dans la science, dans la philosophie, dans les plaisirs de la vie La sérénité de ce désabusé ne ressemble ni au calme olympien de Goethe ni à la fade quiétude d'Horace, poètes auxquels on l'a trop souvent comparé. Son érudition universelle, et ses déboires, d'ordre purement transcendantal, lui ont conféré sa dédaigneuse indifférence et cette amertume qui n'accepte un plaisir que pour le changer en douleur.

Omar Khayyam (CE 79001) - the first "timeship" variant of the Hubble class research cruiser. The Omar Khayyam is a correspondence chapter of STARFLEET: The International Star Trek Fan Association. We are home-ported in Watertown, Massachussetts, and are part of STARFLEET's Region Fifteen. As a correspondence chapter, the crew of the Omar Khayyam perform most of their duties through the Internet. However, we strive to be more sociable and some of us can be found lurking in IRC, while others join together for the occasional face-to-face gathering. The crew of the Omar Khayyam is composed of simulation/roleplayers, fiction writers and story tellers. Our hobbies are many and varied, with enough in common however, to make an interesting mix of characters. Role-playing and fiction writing are the major foci of the ship (and in fact, the primary reasons for her creation). Fictionally, the ship serves as the command base for temporal research and other missions as delegated by the Department of Temporal Investigations which are too delicate or confidential to mention here.
