من كان راعيه ديناً في حُلوبته

فهو الذي نفسَه في أمره ظلما

He whose guide is religion in his youth

Is he who wrongs himself in his affairs

تَرجو كفايته والغَدرُ عادته

ومن ولايته يستجني النَّدما

You hope for his sufficiency though treachery is his habit

And from his friendship one reaps regret
