If you love poetry, then this is a must-read. Omar Khayyam was absolutely brilliant. Nevertheless, I could summarize the full Rubaiyat in one line: Drink more wine. There is no afterlife. Be happy in this life.
But hey, who reads poetry for anything but pleasure, right? It's never in the point.
The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám (Persian: رباعیات عمر خیام) is the title that Edward FitzGerald gave to his translation of a selection of poems, originally written in Persian and numbering about a thousand, attributed to Omar Khayyám (1048–1131), a Persian poet, mathematician and astronomer. A ruba'i is a two-line stanza with two parts (or hemistichs) per line, hence the word rubáiyát (derived from the Arabic language root for "four"), meaning "quatrains".

The Edward FitzGerald translations of The Rubáiyát of Omar Kayyam into English are generally considered to have been paraphrased to the point that "inspired by" may be more accurate than "translated from." Most popular English language editions of the Rubáiyát use the FitzGerald verses both because of their intrinsic value and because it is no longer in copyright. This work consists of all editions that can reasonably be attributed to FitzGerald, by means of title, ISBN or author credit. Books that contain bits of Fitzgerald as well as other, more literal translations are combined with the Persian original and other translations of the Rubáiyáthere. Please do not combine this FitzGerald work with other translations.
