Tim Drayton Nov 11, 2011:
-est I notice that both of these lines end in '-est'. Just out of curiousity, is this some form of a verb in Persian, peraps the third person singular of 'to be'?

stay on the side

farsça: selamet kenardadır.

tamamı sadi'nin gülistan'ında geçen bir ifade imiş:
"be-deryâ der menâfi' bî-şümâr est
eger hâhî selâmet der-kenâr est"

(denizde sayısız menfaatler vardır, ama sen yine de selamet istiyorsan kenarında dur)
