1. Time passes by so pass it carefully
And remember your excesses upon your stars

2. And when you hear the call to good
From the muezzin, extend your hand and widen your path

3. Be resolute if one day you are determined
And seek for yourself strength and vitality

4. And take the truth from abundant experiences
For experiences have belied Socrates

5. How many states have died and others after them
Sickened but found no Hippocrates for them

6. Or don't you see the Arabs who in their weakness
Flatter the Copts and Nabataeans

7. Fate is a jeweler and a thief for long
It has strung beads and scattered coins
