Guide the child's purpose in his affair

سدد مرامي الطفل في شأنه

1. Guide the child's purpose in his affair
With a phrase that strengthens his resolve

١. سَدِّد مَرامي الطِفلِ في شَأنِهِ
بِلَفظَةٍ تَشدُد بِها أَزرَه

2. And be content with a hint of his understanding
For principles are always paltry to him

٢. وَاِكتَفِ بِاللَمحَةِ مِن فَهمِهِ
إِنَّ المَبادي أَبَداً نَزرَه

3. Don't you see how fires flare from a spark
And palms flourish from a seed?

٣. أَما تَرى النيرانَ مِن شُعلَةٍ
وَالدَوحَةَ اللَفاءَ مِن بَزرَه
