Al-Hamishi said: To the people of my time I say:
Alhamashi said, "I belong to my time," he said
I will have my fill of carefree frolicking and leave their gossip and chatter.
With the most eloquent words, and leave their sayings and chatter

ليس أحمل أثقال ما باحمل ولا مثقال
إنindeed التهقالweighing oneself down ماهوit is not شيمةthe way of العقالthe wise
إن التهقال ماهو شيمة العقال
I carry no burdens; I will not carry even a mithqal.
I do not carry burdens that I do not bear, nor an atom's weight
Indeed, weighing oneself down is not the way of the wise.
For frivolity is not the trait of reason
Sol 6.1
