- 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.
