1. عَلَيكَ بحِرمانِ اللَّئيمِ لَعَلَّهُ

    إذا ذاق طَعمَ المَنعِ يَسخو وَيُكرُمُ

    You should deprive the ignoble man; perhaps,

    when he tastes denial, he will grow generous and noble.

  2. ولا تَحرِمِ القَومَ الكِرامَ فإنَّهُمْ

    متى يُحرَمُوا يَوماً يَصولوا ويغرموا

    And do not deprive the noble folk, for they

    will attack and exact payment if ever deprived for a day.
