Spend your wealth, do not care for its loss

ابذل المال لا تبال ببذله

1. Spend your wealth, do not care for its loss
Before it leaves you and settles elsewhere

١. ابْذُلِ المالَ لا تُبالِ بِبَذْلِهْ
قَبلَ تَرحالِهِ ونأْيِ مَحَلِّهْ

2. Wealth with you is but a wayfarer’s provision
And readying a wayfarer’s provision is honouring him

٢. إنَّما المالُ عِنْدَكَ ابنُ سَبيلٍ
وَقِرى ابنِ السَّبيلِ تَجْهِيزُ رَحْلِهُ
