به نام خداوند جان و خرد
کزین برتر اندیشه برنگذرد
خداوند نام و خداوند جای
خداوند روزی ده رهنمای
خداوند کیوان و گردان سپهر
فروزنده ماه و ناهید و مهر
ز نام و نشان و گمان برترست
نگارندهٔ بر شده پیکرست
به بینندگان آفریننده را
نبینی مرنجان دو بیننده را
نیابد بدو نیز اندیشه راه
که او برتر از نام و از جایگاه
سخن هر چه زین گوهران بگذرد
نیابد بدو راه جان و خرد
خرد گر سخن برگزیند همی
همان را گزیند که بیند همی
ستودن نداند کس او را چو هست
میان بندگی را ببایدت بست
خرد را و جان را همی سنجد اوی
در اندیشهٔ سخته کی گنجد اوی
بدین آلت رای و جان و زبان
ستود آفریننده را کی توان
به هستیش باید که خستو شوی
ز گفتار بیکار یکسو شوی
پرستنده باشی و جوینده راه
به ژرفی به فرمانش کردن نگاه
توانا بود هر که دانا بود
ز دانش دل پیر برنا بود
از این پرده برتر سخنگاه نیست
ز هستی مر اندیشه را راه نیست

Narration: Shaheed Khatibi
Abul-Qâsem Ferdowsi Tusi (Persian: ابوالقاسم فردوسی توسی; c. 935-1019), or just Ferdowsi (فردوسی ) was a Persian poet and the author of Shahnameh ("Book of Kings"), which is one of the world's longest epic poems created by a single poet, and the national epic of Greater Khorasa. Ferdowsi is celebrated as one of the most influential figures of Persian literature and one of the greatest in the history of literature. He began work on the Shahnameh around 977, intending it as a continuation of the work of his fellow poet Daqiqi, who had been assassinated by his slave. Like Daqiqi, Ferdowsi employed the prose Shahnameh of ʿAbd-al-Razzāq as a source. He received generous patronage from the Samanid prince Mansur and completed the first version of the Shahnameh in 994. When the Turkic Ghaznavids overthrew the Samanids in the late 990s, Ferdowsi continued to work on the poem, rewriting sections to praise the Ghaznavid Sultan Mahmud. Mahmud's attitude to Ferdowsi and how well he rewarded the poet are matters which have long been subject to dispute and have formed the basis of legends about the poet and his patron. The Turkic Mahmud may have been less interested in tales from Iranian history than the Samanids. The later sections of the Shahnameh have passages which reveal Ferdowsi's fluctuating moods: in some he complains about old age, poverty, illness and the death of his son; in others, he appears happier. Ferdowsi finally completed his epic on 8 March 1010. Virtually nothing is known with any certainty about the last decade of his life.
