Episode description
In this second part of the Persian language/Farsi lesson on Khayām's Khosh Bash we go over the following section of the poem, along with all the vocabulary and phrases associated with the words learned:
خیام اگر ز باده مستی خوش باشبا ماهرخی اگر نشستی خوش باش
khayām, agar zé bādé mastee, khosh bāshbā māh rokhee agar neshastee, khosh bāsh
Edward Fitzgerald translation: Khayyam, if you are drunk with wine, be happy.If you have sat with a beloved who has a face like the moon, be happy.
