For Some We Loved Poem by Omar Khayyam

For Some We Loved

Rating: 5.0


For some we loved, the loveliest and the best
That from His vintage rolling Time hath pressed,
Have drunk the Cup a round or two before,
And one by one crept silently to rest.

This has been happening since the time immemorial. Each one of us has lived life as per his or her knowledge, understanding and duty consciousness. Life is also an inter-play of several elements driven by the pleasure principle. It goes on from birth to death. Thanks.

And this is why we read the classics. To enjoy the wine of literature and learn how it is written.
