1. Your brother who, if adversity
Assails you from fate, will not cease to blame fate,
١. أَخوكَ الَّذي إِن أَخرَجَتكَ مُلِمَّةٌ
مِنَ الدَهرِ لَم يَبَرَح لَها الدَهرُ واحِما
2. And he is not the brother who, if affairs
Branch out against you, persists to chide you.
٢. وَلَيسَ أَخوكَ بِالَّذي إِن تَشَعَّبَت
عَلَيكَ أُمورٌ ظَلَّ يَلحاكَ لائِما
