Just because those poems weren't written by ancient Persians, does that make them any less good? You've been misled about the source, fine, but if you like the poems, I don't see why this would make you like them any less. Yesterday I found out that the melody to "Don't Think Twice, it's Alright" was lifted from a Paul Clayton song. That doesn't make it any less good.
