Hi Kamal

One of the very famous quotations from Ferdoosi about Shahnameh is this one:

بسی رنج بردم در این سال سی// عجم زنده کردم بدین پارسی

it means: I suffered during thirty years that I made Iranians alive by
contributing to the Persian language (his Shahnameh). Here he uses Parsi as
the localised form of Persian language and not Farsi.
