A quick example of a Persian poem that relates to the Persian myth of Ferdowsi:
There is a valley of Samarkand/Where a thousand rivers flow. And a great king once lived there/Who was rich and powerful and wise. He built a palace, a mighty fortress/And a garden, for the beauty of its flowers. In the garden stood a fountain/With a statue of a lion at its side. But one day a thief stole from him/A ring from the fingers of the lion's paw. The thief took away the ring/And then he disappeared into the night. Now the thief is old and blind/And he wanders through the valley alone. There is a valley of Samarkand/Where a thousand rivers flow. And a great king once lived there/Who was rich and powerful and wise.
The first two lines tell us that the thief is a Persian thief, as they'd steal from Persians.
