1. When fifty years have passed for a man
And he is no longer swayed by youth
١. وَإِذا مَضى لِلمَرءِ مِن أَعوامِهِ
خَمسونَ وَهوَ عَنِ الصِبا لَم يَجنَحِ
2. Humiliations crowd him insistently-
"You have made us laugh, now depart!"
٢. عَكَفَت عَلَيهِ المُخزِياتُ وَقُلنَ قَد
أَضحَكتَنا وَسَرَرتَنا لا تَبرَحِ
3. When Iblis sees the foolish innocence on his face
He salutes him- "I sacrifice myself for one who does not succeed!"
٣. وَإِذا رَأى إِبليسُ غُرَّةَ وَجهِهِ
حَيّا وَقالَ فَدَيتُ مَن لَم يُفلِحِ
