لَعَمرُكَ ما كُلُّ التَعَطُّلِ ضائِرٌ

وَلا كُلُّ شُغلٍ فيهِ لِلمَرءِ مَنفَعَهْ

By Your life not all leisure is harmful

Nor all occupation beneficial to men

إِذا كانَت الأَرزاقُ في القُربِ وَالنَوى

عَلَيكَ سَواءً فَاِغتَنم راحَةَ الدَعَهْ

If daily bread is near yet distant from desire

It is all the same to you so take advantage of calm and rest
