وَلَم يَتَسَهَّل لِلفَتى دَرَكُ العُلا

وَلَم يَتَسَهَّل لِلفَتى دَرَكُ العُلا

إِذا هُوَ لَم يَصبِر عَلى المُتَصَعِّبِ

إِذا هُوَ لَم يَصبِر عَلى المُتَصَعِّبِ

Attaining lofty heights does not come easily to a young man

And attaining eminence does not come easily to a young man

if he does not patiently endure what is difficult.

If he does not persevere through hardship.
