1. Do not pursue this world and its days,
Though it may spin you in its cycle.
١. لا تُتبِعِ الدُنيا وَأَيّامَها
ذَمّاً وَإِن دارَت بِكَ الدائِرَه
2. The nobility of this world and its excellence
Is to prepare in it for the world to come.
٢. مِن شَرَفِ الدُنيا وَمِن فَضلِها
أَنَّ بِها تُستَدرَكُ الآخِرَه
