1. وَكَأَنَّ مَن دَفَنَتهُ أَيدٍ في الثَرى

    لَم يُغنِ حُبّاً حَينَ يَرجِعُ دافِنُه

    And it is as though the one whom hands buried in the earth

    had done love no good when his burier returns.

  2. خَسَدٌ سَيَخرَبُ حينَ تَخرُجُ روحُهُ

    كَالبيتِ يَخرَبُ حينَ يَخرُجُ ساكِنُه

    A body will fall into ruin when its soul departs,

    like a house that falls into ruin when its inhabitant leaves.
