The free man endures with patience whatever he can

الحر يصبر ما أطاق تصبرا

1. The free man endures with patience whatever he can
In every time and era

١. الحُرُّ يَصبِرُ ما أَطاقَ تَصَبُّراً
في كُلِّ آوِنَةٍ وَكُلِّ زَمانِ

2. And sees helping the generous as nobility
As long as misfortunes of fate did not harm him

٢. وَيَرى مُساعَدَةَ الكِرامِ مُروءَةً
ماسالَمَتهُ نَوائِبُ الحَدَثانِ

3. And he melts with keeping silent unless
His conditions inform against keeping silent

٣. وَيَذوبُ بِالكِتمانِ إِلّا أَنَّهُ
أَحوالُهُ تُنبي عَنِ الكِتمانِ

4. So when his condition was uncovered and weakened
You would find him complaining with every tongue

٤. فَإِذا تَكَشَّفَ وَاِضمَحَلَّت حالُهُ
أَلفَيتَهُ يَشكو بِكُلِّ لِسانِ

5. And if a house brought me close, I left it
And Allah graces me in every place

٥. وَإِذا نَبا بي مَنزِلٌ فارَقتُهُ
وَاللَهُ يَلطُفُ بي بِكُلِّ مَكانِ
