شیشه

Wikipedia ^fa

From Middle Persian (šyšk' /⁠šīšag⁠/, “bottle, flask”), seemingly from *šīš (compare Old Armenian շիշ (šiš, “bottle”), an Iranian borrowing) + common suffix -ag, probably ultimately from Semitic. Compare Biblical Hebrew שַׁיִשׁ (šayiš, “alabaster; marble”), Classical Syriac ܫܝܫܐ (šēšā, “marble”), Egyptian

(šs, “alabaster”).

     گفت احول ز ان دو شیشه من کدام
     پیش تو آرم بکن شرح تمام

     guft ahwal z-ān du šīša man kudām
     pēš-i tu āram bikun šarh-i tamām
