1. He who is exalted due to his tie with you
Spare him, should he make some blunder
١. إِنّ مَحسوبَكَ الّذي بِكَ يَسمو
لا تُؤاخِذْه لو هَفا أيَّ هَفوِ
2. For the vile among mankind are prone to spite
While the noble among mankind are prone to pardon
٢. فَلِئامُ الأنامِ أَهلٌ لِحِقدٍ
وكرامُ الأنامِ أهلٌ لعفوِ
