Note 332 — KING SHAH BAKHT AND HIS WAZIR AL-RAHWAN.[295]
Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2
In Persian “Áward o burd,” = brought and bore away, gen. applied to the movement of the man as in the couplet,
Chenín burd o áward o áward o burd,
Kih dáyeh pas-i-pardeh zi ghussah murd.
He so came and went, went and came again,
That Nurse who lay curtained to faint was fain.
