1. لا تَغضَبَنَّ عَلى اِمرِئٍ في مالِهِ

    وَعلى كَرائِمُ صُلبِ مالِكَ فَاِغضَبِ

    Do not be angry with a man over his wealth.

    But be angry over the choicest of your own principal assets.

  2. وَإِذا تُصِبكَ خَصاصَةٌ فارجُ الغِنى

    وَإِلى الَّذي يُعطي الرَغائِبَ فَاِرغَبِ

    And if poverty befalls you, hope for prosperity.

    And direct your longing toward the one who bestows prized gifts.
