    • c. 1260, Rumi, دیوان شمس تبریزی [Dīvān-i Shams-i Tabrīzī]‎[1]:
      ما در جهان موافقت کس نمی‌کنیم
      ما خانه زیر گنبد اطلس نمی‌کنیم
      مخمور و مست و تشنه و بسیار خواره‌ایم
      بس کرده‌اند جمله و ما بس نمی‌کنیم
      mā dar jahān muwāfaqat-i kas na-mē-kunēm
      mā xāna zēr-i gumbad-i atlas na-mē-kunēm
      maxmur u mast u tišna u bisyār xwāra-ēm
      bas karda-and jumla wa mā bas na-mē-kunēm.
      We will not conform to anyone in this world;
      We will make no house under the satin dome [of heaven];
      We are tipsy and drunk, we are thirsty and glutted;
      They have all done enough, we will do no more.
