1. People in religion and worldly life have degrees
And wealth is between stalled and convulsing

2. Whoever lives, spends much of his prime
And for straits are doors of relief

3. If it is too narrow for you, God's earth is spacious
In the face of every strait is an alleviating aspect

4. The sleeper may catch up with the guide in his sleep
Yet the brother of spirits and shadows may fail

5. The best of methods in needs is the most successful
And the narrowest of affairs is the closest to relief

6. I have known, though I fell short in my deeds
That the son of Adam is not devoid of excuses

7. How can one be devout without qualm
None fears God but everyone with qualm
