The poem

بسی رنج بردم در این سال سی

عجم زنده کردم بدین پارسی

پی افکندم از نظم کاخی بلند

که از باد و باران نیابد گزند

نمیرم از این پس که من زنده‌ام

که تخم سخن را پراکنده‌ام

About the poem

After thirty years of labour over the Shahnameh, Ferdowsi declares that he has revived the Persians through the Persian tongue — raising a palace of verse that neither wind nor rain can harm, by which he will never truly die.
