أتعبْتَ نفسكَ بَيْنَ ذلة كادح

طلبَ الحَيَاةَ وبيْنَ حِرص مؤَمِّلِ

You have wearied yourself between the humiliation of toil

Seeking life, and greedy anticipation

وأَضَعْتَ عُمْرك لا خلاعة ماجن

حَصَّلتَ فِيهِ ولا وقارَ مُبَجَّل

And you have wasted your life without virtuous dignity

Attaining from it neither gain nor honourable gravity

وَتركتَ حظَّ النفس فِي الدنيا وَفِي ال

أخْرَى ورَحْتَ عن الجميع بمعزل

And you have neglected the soul's portion in this life and the

Next, and isolated yourself from all
