Let Us Relish The Pleasures Of Life, Rendering Omar Khayyam Poem by Ravi Kopra

Let Us Relish The Pleasures Of Life, Rendering Omar Khayyam



Let us relish the pleasures of life
Whenever wherever we have a chance
You'll be buried with your strife
One day anyway. Eat, drink and dance.

***

XXV.
Ah, make the most of what we may yet 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!
