1. Be quick to acknowledge, do not deny a brother
Whatever of yours he fears will bring reprisal
١. كُن شاطِرَ الإِقرارِ لا تَجحَد أَخاً
ما كانَ مِنكَ إِلَيهِ خَوفُ قَصاصِ
2. And speak truth when the coward armors himself with lies
For many a truth has been the source of deliverance
٢. وَاِصدُق إِذا اِدَّرَعَ الجَبانُ بِكَذبِهِ
فَلَرُبَّ صِدقٍ كانَ أَصلَ خَلاصِ
