Poetry

«درخت تو گر بارِ دانش گیرد،

به زیر آوری چرخِ نیلوفری را»

“If your tree bears the fruit of knowledge,

you’ll bring the celestial wheel down beneath you.”

This verse is from Naser Khosrow Qobadiani, a poet and philosopher of the fifth century AH, about 900 years ago.

For him, knowledge was not just a tool; it was a deep-rooted force for changing the course of time.

Knowledge is not just knowing, It is the root that gives meaning to the soil,

And the branch that makes the sky ponder.

When understanding weighs within you,

The world no longer spins aimlessly;

It stops, looks, and adjusts its course with you.
