en-wikipedia-org-2398		Rubaʿi - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	1271	237	76	It refers specifically to a form of Persian poetry, or its derivative form in English and other languages. In classical Persian poetry, the ruba'i is written as a four-line (or two-couplet) poem, with a rhyme-scheme AABA or AAAA.[2][3][4][5] The verse form AABA as used in English verse is known as the Rubaiyat Quatrain due to its use by Edward FitzGerald in his famous 1859 translation, Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. FitzGerald's translation became so popular by the turn of the century that hundreds of American humorists wrote parodies using the form and, to varying degrees, the content of his stanzas, including The Rubaiyat of Ohow Dryyam, The Rubaiyat of A Persian Kitten, The Rubaiyat of Omar Cayenne and The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, Jr. Quatrain VII from the fourth edition of FitzGerald's Rubaiyat: This poetry-related article is a stub.
