1. وَلَرُبَّ أَربَعَ في الوَرى لم يَكفِها

    ما قد يُضافُ لها مَدَى الأَزمانِ

    And indeed, four things in this world have never had enough

    Of what may be added to them throughout the ages:

  2. عينٌ وأُذنٌ رؤيةٌ ورِوايةٌ

    رَحِمٌ ونارٌ لن تقولَ كفاني

    An eye and an ear—sight and tales—

    A womb and a fire will never say, “I have enough.”
