About this work

A passage from Nezami's "Khosrow and Shirin" beginning "You who linger over this tale for its lesson". The poet says the story should not be taken as a mere tale and that it calls for tears, and he remembers his own short-lived wife, the "Qipchaq idol" sent to him by the ruler of Darband, whose youth was blown away like a rose.

بخشی از «خسرو و شیرین» نظامی که با بیت «تو کز عبرت بدین افسانه مانی» آغاز می‌شود. شاعر می‌گوید این داستان را نباید افسانه پنداشت و در آن باید اشک ریخت، و از همسر کوتاه‌عمر خود یاد می‌کند، «بت قبچاق» که فرمانروای دربند به او فرستاده بود و چون گل جوانی بر باد رفت.
