1. Bear your father's burden one day,
For the old man's strength has weakened.

2. Fate brought you though he did not want it,
And he preferred you to gain what it contains.

3. Your friend in public is an enemy in secret,
So do not grieve if his intentions have turned.

4. She leaned on the poor without knowing,
And how much lies she told her questioners.

5. There is no blindness in the dispersal of these people,
Can time erase it when it is folded?

6. Your brother's foal complains of prolonged thirst
With what your foal found of its passion.

7. And how can man expect guidance,
When he does not cease following his whim?

8. He thinks highly of himself and his status,
As if God created none but him.

9. Oh turn your beauty towards a pasture,
For this sand did not grow its grass.

10. And I cannot attain something soon,
If my Creator distances it from me.
