1. لي راحَةٌ يَفرُقُ مِنها الغنى

    لأنَّ ما ينزلها يُستَماح

    I have a palm that wealth fears,

    for whatever comes into it is asked for as a gift.

  2. لا بُدَّ أَن أعمرَها بِالغِنى

    فَطالَما أَفقَرتُها بِالسَّماح

    I must replenish it with wealth,

    for often have I impoverished it through generosity.
