1. O heart, though fate may thwart your dearest aim
And change your joy to grief, your good to shame,
١. يَا قَلْبُ مَهْمَا رَمَاكَ الدَّهْرُ عَنْ غَرَضٍ
بِنَكْبَةٍ أبْدَلَتْكَ الزَّيْنَ بِالشَّيْنِ
2. Fear not affliction that must pass away;
Between two joys a sorrow cannot stay.
٢. لاَ تَخْشَ عُسْراً فَإنَّ اليُسْرَ يَغْلُبُهُ
وَلَيْسَ يُغْلَبُ عُسْرٌ بَيْنَ يُسْرَيْنِ
