1. Do not seek what is not proper for you to do
And repay the wrongdoer with the utmost benevolence
١. لا تبغِ ما لا ينبغي لك فعلُهُ
واجزِ المُسِيءَ بأَجزَلِ الإِحسانِ
2. Indeed the path to salvation is difficult
And my tongue fails to elucidate that
٢. إن الطريقَ الى الخلاصِ عسيرةٌ
ويَكِلُّ عن إِيضاحِ ذاكَ لِساني
3. Do not be astonished, for that is contrary to
What the nature of mankind is built upon
٣. لا تَعجَبَنَّ لانَّ ذلك ضِدُّ ما
بُنَيت عليهِ طبيعةُ الإِنسانِ
