Abstract
Most of the quatrains attributed to Omar Khayyam are also attributed to other poets in different Persian literary old books. This has caused confusion among scholars in finding real pieces of Khayyam's written poems. Though doing a lot of job by many researchers in sifting the quatrains, it seems that there is steel a long way to go. In this paper we have studied eleven common quatrains of Omar Khayyam and Hafiz which are also attributed to other poets. Paying attention to the manuscripts that included those quatrains and analyzing the stylistic, theme and motif points of each quatrain we finally concluded whom each quatrain belongs to.
