1. تَعَلَّمْ فَلَيْسَ الْمَرْءُ يُولَدُ عَالِمًا

    وَلَيْسَ أَخُو عِلْمٍ كَمَنْ هُوَ جَاهِلُ

    Learn, for no one is born learned.

    And a man of knowledge is not like one who is ignorant.

  2. وَإِنَّ كَبِيرَ الْقَوْمِ لَا عِلْمَ عِنْدَهُ

    صَغِيرٌ إِذَا الْتَفَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الْجَحَافِلُ

    And indeed, a people's elder, having no knowledge,

    Is small when the armies gather around him.

  3. وَإِنَّ صَغِيرَ الْقَوْمِ إِنْ كَانَ عَالِمًا

    كَبِيرٌ إِذَا رُدَّتْ إِلَيْهِ الْمَحَافِلُ

    And indeed, a people's youth, if he is learned,

    Is great when assemblies turn to him.
