انوری (مقطعات)/گرچه دربستم در مدح و غزل یکبارگی

A fragment by Anvari beginning "Though I have closed the door on panegyric and ghazal altogether". The poet says that if he has given up praise and lyric, it is not from lack of skill; he is versed in logic, music, astronomy, theology, mathematics, natural philosophy and astrology, and he laments that despite all this, to his patron he is merely "a poet".
