Abandon greed, and be content with sufficiency out of prosperity

دع الحرص واقنع بالكفاف من الغنى

1. Abandon greed, and be content with sufficiency out of prosperity
For the livelihood of a young man is with his life

١. دَعِ الحِرصَ وَاِقنَع بِالكَفافِ مِنَ الغَنى
فَرزقُ الفَتى ما عاشَ عِندَ مَعيشِهِ

2. And the abundance of his wealth may destroy a man
As the peacock is slaughtered for the sake of its feathers

٢. وَقَد يُهلِكُ الإِنسانَ كَثرَةَ مالِهِ
كَما يُذبَحُ الطاووسُ مِن أَجلِ ريشِهِ
