1. Whoever experienced time knows well
That in hardship and ease, something will surely change
١. مَن جَرب الدَهر يَدري إِن حالَتَهُ
في العُسر وَاليُسر شَيءٌ سَوفَ يَنقَلب
2. So it's no wonder the world's conditions alter
But wondering at this - that is the wonder
٢. فَما يُغير أَحوال الوَرى عَجب
بَل التَعَجُب مِن هَذا هُوَ العَجَب
