You, my mind, follow the paths of search, And you don’t get tired of repeating a hundred times a day: “Appreciate the moment of communication with friends! You are a meadow, but if you are mown, you will not grow again!”
I understood: loneliness is better than friends, so as not to see good or evil in people, in order to strictly understand your own soul, - only then for people to be among strict judges.
Have fewer friends these days, simpleton. Be stingy with confessions, don’t listen to flattering lies. But look wisely - and you will see right away: The one you trusted is your traitor, your enemy!
I will compare responsive people to mirrors. What a pity that mirrors don’t see themselves! To clearly see yourself in your friends, first show yourself as a mirror to your friends.
Don't cry out to your friend or to heaven for help. Look within yourself for the balm. Be strong in trouble. If you want to call a friend, suffer your misfortune yourself.
Don’t look for a friend in strange corners, Don’t share your misfortunes with him. Be alone. Find a cure for your suffering yourself. Let your Comforter heal himself.
A true friend is a person who will tell you everything he thinks about you and tell everyone that you are a wonderful person.
A lot of evil and deceit lurks all around, You will not find friends in this herd of people. Everyone you meet seems like a friend, Wait: he will turn out to be a fierce enemy.
When you sit down again at the table, like a close family, I ask you, O friends, to remember your friend and overturn the cup In the place where I used to sit among you.
Have smaller friends, don't expand their circle. And remember: a close friend living far away is better. Take a calm look at everyone who is sitting around. In whom you saw support, you will suddenly see your enemy.
You must be good with both friend and enemy! He who is good by nature will not find malice in him. If you offend a friend, you will make an enemy; if you hug an enemy, you will gain a friend.
Fewer friends! Oh, day by day the empty sparks of fire are extinguished. And when you shake your hand, always think silently: “Oh, they’ll swing it at me!”
Respect and visit the conscientious and intelligent - And away, without looking back, run away from the ignoramus!
In this unfaithful world, don’t be a fool: Don’t you dare rely on those around you. Take a sober look at your closest friend - A friend may turn out to be your worst enemy.
You don’t really have a heart for the people of today. It’s better to be away from people these days. Open the eyes of your soul to those closest to you, - You will see with horror: they are your enemies.

***** To live your life wisely, you need to know a lot. Remember two important rules to begin with: You’d better starve than eat anything, And it’s better to be alone than with just anyone.
***** Communicating with a fool will not bring you shame. Therefore, listen to Khayyam’s advice: Accept the poison offered to you by the sage, but do not accept balm from the hands of a fool.
***** Become famous in the city - you will arouse resentment, And become a homebody - you will arouse suspicion. Wouldn’t it be better for you, even if you were Khizr, to know no one, to live always in solitude?
***** When you sit down again at the table, like a close family, I ask you, oh friends, to remember your friend and overturn the cup In the place where I used to sit among you.
***** With friends, rejoice in spring while you are young: Don’t leave anything at the bottom of the jug! After all, this world was once flooded with water, So why don’t we drown in wine?
***** I know this type of pompous asses: Empty as a drum, but so many loud words! They are slaves of names. Just make up a name for yourself, And any of them is ready to crawl before you.
***** One day I met in front of an old ashes with my husband, who lived there as a hermit and beggar; He shunned faith, laws, and deity: We will not find a more courageous husband than him.
***** If you are my friend, leave the word game and pour me some wine; When I die, make a brick from my ashes, take it to the tavern and plug the hole in the wall there.
***** I want to get drunk so that from my grave, when I go down into it, a sweet wine smell comes out, so that it intoxicates you and leaves you dead, passing fellow revelers!

***** Where are you, friends! Where is your free chorus? Just yesterday, sitting down at our table, Carefree, you reveled with us... And lay down, tipsy from life!
***** In this world of fools, scoundrels, hucksters, shut your ears, wise man, sew your mouth securely, close your eyelids tightly - think at least a little about the safety of your eyes, tongue and ears!
***** My friend, there is no need to worry about tomorrow: Be glad that today the light of the sun shines on us. After all, tomorrow we will leave forever and instantly catch up with Those who have gone from here for eight thousand years.
***** Be wise and do not choose the pathetic path of a fool. If a friend is generous, do not choose a miser as your friend. People's hearts are open to those who are pure in their thoughts. Give good to everyone, but do not choose a flatterer for yourself.
***** I thought that the kaziy and the mufti would be able to help me find the right path, overcome the spirit of sorrow, But after living, I was convinced that all these know-it-alls Know, my friend, just as little as I do.
***** If you want, drink, but don’t lose your sanity when you’re drunk, Don’t lose your sense of proportion when you’re drunk, old man, Beware of offending a noble man when you’re drunk, Don’t lose the friendship of the wise over a cup of wine.
***** Listen, young man, to what the elder says - He only asks you to comprehend one essence: You should not be friends with an illiterate ignoramus, You should not do work that does not bring any benefit.
***** It’s as if you were friends with me at first, But then you suddenly decided to be at enmity with me. I didn’t despair that fate had turned away: What if you still become nice to me?
***** To sing like this, the nightingales become more and more friendly. Drinking like this makes my friends and I get drunker and drunker. So the rose in the garden opened voluptuously. Two or three times a day I bend over her.
***** Drink with your wise, eloquent old age, Drink with your smilingly beautiful youth. Drink, friend, but don’t shout about what you’re drinking, Drink occasionally and secretly - in a happy moment.
Interesting: Rubaiyat about the meaning of life Omar Khayyam
***** A learned man who is wiser than a mullah, but a boaster and a deceiver, is worthy of blasphemy. A man whose Word is stronger than a granite rock is above the wise, above any praise!
***** For those who see the inside behind the appearance, Evil and good are like gold and silver. For both are given for a while, For both evil and good will soon end.
***** Don’t envy someone who is strong and rich. Sunset always follows dawn. Treat this short life, equal to a sigh, as if it was given to you on loan.
***** Don’t let yourself be lulled by praise - The sword of fate is raised above your head. No matter how sweet glory is, fate has poison ready. Beware of getting poisoned by halva!
***** For the worthy there are no worthy rewards, I am glad to lay down my belly for the worthy. Do you want to know if hell exists? Living among the unworthy is true hell!
***** If you don’t fall into a prayer frenzy, But you give the last piece to the poor, If you don’t betray any of your friends, You’ll go straight to heaven... If you give me a drink!
***** O sage! If this or that fool Calls the midnight darkness dawn, - Pretend to be a fool and don’t argue with fools. Everyone who is not a fool is a freethinker and an enemy!
***** You must be good with both friend and enemy! He who is good by nature will not find malice in him. If you offend a friend, you will make an enemy; if you hug an enemy, you will gain a friend.
***** Have smaller friends, don’t expand their circle. And remember: a friend living far away is better than loved ones. Calmly look at everyone who is sitting around. In whom you saw support, you will suddenly see your enemy.
***** The one who befriended lovely beauties with a smile, Who put suffering into a grieving heart, If he didn’t give us happiness, we don’t complain, we don’t cry, For he even deprived many of hope.

Love can do without reciprocity, but friendship never can.
Keep your words safer than coins. Listen to the end and then give your answer. With two ears you got one tongue. To listen to two and give one piece of advice.
Silence is a shield from many troubles, and chatter is always harmful. A man’s tongue is small, but how many lives he has ruined!
Oh God, when I lose hope, help me remember that Your love is greater than my disappointment, and Your plans for my life are better than my dreams...
“There is no worse loneliness than being alone together...”
“Appreciate even the bitter days of life, After all, they too are gone forever.”
A true friend is a person who will tell you everything he thinks about you and tell everyone that you are a wonderful person.
When people gossip about you, it means that you are angry not only about yourself, but also about others. They fill themselves with you.
Nobility and meanness, courage and fear - everything is inherent in our bodies from birth. Until death we will become neither better nor worse; we are the way Allah created us.
We are a source of joy and sorrow. We are a receptacle of filth and a pure spring. Man, like the world in a mirror, has many faces. He is insignificant - and he is immeasurably great!
We will leave without a trace - no names, no signs. This world will last for thousands of years. We weren’t here before, and we won’t be here after. There is no harm or benefit from this.
The world is ruled by violence, anger and revenge. What else on earth is reliable? Where are the happy people in an angry world? If there are, they can easily be counted on one hand.
Omar Khayyam about friendship
author of the article: Alexey Babushkin, networking expert, business coach
Everyone knows Omar Khayyam as a sage and philosopher who subtly understands the depth of the soul and human relationships. But the great sage, whose sayings everyone has heard at least once in his life, was also a musician, astronomer, poet and an outstanding mathematician who made significant contributions to algebra. Omar Khayyam is also known for compiling the calendar (Iranian calendar or Solar Hijri), one of the most accurate, which is still used today in Iran and Afghanistan. Omar Khayyam was born on May 18, 1048
in Persia. Now this is the territory of modern Iran. There Khayyam spent his entire life, where during his long 83 years he wrote a significant number of works, many of which were in poetic form.
During his lifetime, Khayyam was known more as a scientist than a poet. But today more than 5,000 rubai are known, attributed to Omar Khayyam. Whether all these poems were written by the Persian himself or someone wrote under his pseudonym is not completely known. Some researchers believe that Khayyam himself is the author of only a tenth of them. However, it is more important to know the meaning and wisdom of a fair statement than to understand its authorship.
Despite the fact that Omar Khayyam lived almost 1000 years ago, the truths that the ancient sage wrote about still remain relevant. In Astrakhan in 2021, the first monument to Omar Khayyam in Russia was erected. This only confirms that the famous Persian in our country is considered a symbol of wisdom, spirituality and kindness.
Here is a selection of some of Omar Khayyam's rubai dedicated to relationships, friendship and establishing useful connections.
Omar Khayyam about friendship and communication
-1-
Respect and visit the conscientious and intelligent - And away, without looking back, run away from the ignoramus!
-2-
Don’t do evil - it will come back like a boomerang,
Don’t spit in the well - you will drink the water,Don’t insult someone of lower rank, What if you have to ask for something.
-3-
How often, when we make mistakes in life, We lose those we value. Trying to please others, Sometimes we run away from our neighbors.
-4-
You, my mind, follow the paths of search, And you don’t get tired of repeating a hundred times a day: “Appreciate the moment of communication with friends! You are a meadow! But if you cut it down, you won’t sprout again!”
-5-
I will compare responsive people to mirrors. What a pity that mirrors don’t see themselves! To clearly see yourself in your friends, first show yourself as a mirror to your friends.
-6-
Only those who are worse than us think badly of us, and those who are better than us... They simply have no time for us
Omar Khayyam is against expanding useful ties
And here are a few statements that are even surprising, demonstrating the author’s fanatical suspicion, suspiciousness and lack of faith in people. Nevertheless, perhaps for some there is some truth in these lines.
-7-
Have smaller friends, don't expand their circle. And remember: a close friend living far away is better. Take a calm look at everyone who is sitting around. In whom you saw support, you will suddenly see your enemy.
-8-
A lot of evil and deceit lurks all around, You will not find friends in this herd of people. Everyone you meet seems like a friend, Wait: he will turn out to be a fierce enemy.
Rules of communication of Omar Khayyam
Still, I want to believe that the Persian sage is wrong and there are much more good and kind people in our world than evil and vile ones. However, Omar Khayyam himself shows the universal rule of relationships with other people and the way to turn enemies into friends.
-9-
You must be good with both friend and enemy! He who is good by nature will not find malice in him. If you offend a friend, you will make an enemy; if you hug an enemy, you will gain a friend.
In conclusion, I will give one more statement attributed to Omar Khayyam about a true friend.
-10-
A true friend is a person who will tell you everything he thinks about you and tell everyone that you are a wonderful person.
It remains to wish everyone faithful and reliable people who will be support and support in difficult times, and who will also be sincerely happy to share the joy of victory, and will even do everything to lead you to this success!
