1. Whoever is heedless will not encounter misery
One day fate will alight in his courtyard

2. The days' daughters will handle him
Until he is worn out like a worn-out vessel

3. And every severe occurrence that befell a living being
Relief will come after its severity

4. So say to the God-conscious the accidents of death
Beware, and being cautious will not avail you

5. The greedy is not given wealth for his greed
And abundance may grow for the powerless one

6. Rich is the one with a rich soul, not the materially rich
And poor is the one possessed by misery
