1. A man is regarded
As long as he is hoped for
١. المَرءُ مَنظورٌ إِلَيهِ
ما دامَ يُرجى ما لَدَيهِ
2. If you wish to be
One who has virtue in this life
٢. مَن كُنتَ تَبغي أَن تَكو
نَ الدَهرَ ذا فَضلٍ عَلَيهِ
3. Then give to others what is in your hands
And overlook what is in theirs
٣. فَابذُل لَهُ ما في يَدَي
كَ وَأَغضِ عَمّا في يَدَيهِ
