My quote is from that link HG provided. I believe yours is from the Fitzgerald translation- -which is the best.

Thats a better translation by far. Often a lot gets lost due to the fact that the persian language is very rich. Has single, precise words to describe feelings, emotions, for which there are no corresponding words in English. The emotions can be further explained by creating combination of words to form a single larger word which may define the dimensions of the feeling down to the last detail. An exact translation of a word often needs paragraphs of English. Kinda like a C program. A good programmer of C may fit into a line of C Code what Oracle or COBOL would take paragraphs to code.... Its for this reason that Urdu and Persian are called the languages of poets and kings. My crystal ball, after todays action, tells me there's a huge dip coming on Nasdaq.....anyone have any opinions ?
