The rubaiyat are a series of poems or 'stanzas' by the famous 12th century Persian atronomer and philosopher The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (Persian: rb`yt `mr khym) 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 Khayyam (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 rubaiyat (derived from the Arabic language root for "four"), meaning "quatrains". (Courtesy: Wikipedia)(less)
