چون عهده نمی شود کسی فردا را، حالی خوش دار این دل پر شیدا را
مِی نوش به ماهتاب ای ماه که ماه، بسیار بتابد و نیابد ما را

Yon rising Moon that looks for us again--
How oft hereafter will she wax and wane;
How oft hereafter rising look for us
Through this same Garden--and for one in vain!

Persian Poetry

Khayyam - چون عهده نمی شود کسی فردا را

【电灯泡】
这个词有两个意思，一个是指灯，另一个是指在不合适的时间出现的人。

比如：
Lisa:  嗨，Lily,今晚我男朋友约我一起出去吃饭，你和我一起去吧。

 Lily:  额...还是算了吧，我就不要去当电灯泡了。你们两人去就好了，路上注意安全。

The word has two meanings. One refers to a lamp and the other refers to a person who appears at an inappropriate time.

For example:
Lisa: Hi, lily, my boyfriend asked me out to dinner tonight. Come with me.
Lily: Well Forget it. I'm not going to be a third wheel. You two just go. Be safe on the way.
