1. الحقُّ كالصبحِ تمتازُ الرجالُ بهِ

    لا بِالرجالِ يكونُ الميزُ للحقِّ

    Truth, like dawn, is that by which men are distinguished;

    it is not by men that truth is discerned.

  2. وَإنّما العكسُ مِن أوساخِ فلسفةٍ

    في مَنطقٍ ما له بالحقّ من نطقِ

    The reverse is but the filth of a philosophy,

    in a logic that has nothing true to say.
