1. I leave this world, and you'll no more see
A friend so true who ne'er betrayed by me;
١. أُتْرُكِ الدُّنْيَا فَلَسْتَ تَرَى
صَاحِباً فِي الْوُدِّ لَمْ يَخُنِ
2. Shun those with whom you have no rapport,
So shall you 'scape deceit forevermore.
٢. وَاجْتَنِبْ مَنْ لا تُشَاكِلُهُ
تَنْجُ مِنْ غَدْرٍ وَمِنْ غَبَنِ
3. Whoever strays outside their proper sphere
Will be the hostage of suspicion and fear.
٣. مَنْ جَرَى فِي غَيْرِ حَلْبَتِهِ
كَانَ مَوْقُوفَاً عَلَى الظِّنَنِ
