1. Say goodbye to this world and confess
To the absurd despite the affection it shows

2. You are in ignorance and I vow to Him
Who walks the paths of ignorance to perish

3. You are fortunate like others of your kind
Of the black night, a religion and ancestors

4. You are of a kind, smiling, and if
They examined you, they would say in sorrow

5. You are like the tanween and hamzah in
Another direction, words and vim

6. Whenever I hear nonsense I say no
Or hear knowledge being recited I say huh

7. This is my advice from one
Whose decline's illness made him thin

8. This is from God's blessings, O
Arrogant one, take them, do not fear

9. One day the past will end, and
The day of striving and time is nigh

10. These are the days of rhetoricians
The prattler among them has no eloquence

11. So take off your shoes for knowledge and do not
Return after times with shoes

12. And enter its garden, my hopeful one
And reap bouquets of greatness and pluck

13. Walk lightly and secretly, do not incline
Towards another, the brigands wear shoes

14. Knowledge is the door to this world and
What is above it, he who is barefoot and adorned

15. It is the convoy in its speed
Where in the horizon you will find it approaching

16. It is the spirit in the hot air balloon and if
You said spirit you would be truthful in describing

17. It is that wire that brings you
What is in the corners of earth without trouble

18. It is that thunder if you came seeking tumult
It is that lightning if you came seeking the guest room

19. It is the signs of our God, it is that
Which, no matter how hard we try, is unobtainable

20. I wonder, have we headed towards it
United, O children of the nations, row after row?

21. Why in your ignorance, strange is that
On the face of the earth you became like a corpse

22. Do not die on it, what traveled
The east, death, has appeared and uncovered

23. The hours of weeping if you mourn
Your fortune after or the fortune of successors

24. So board the wings of knowledge even
If above it you became like overlapping pleats

25. Or relieve your soul from living it
And take it out, for that is more delicious and lighter
