1. إنْ أعرَضَتْ دُنياكَ عنكَ بِوَجهها

    وغَدَتْ ومنها في رِضاكَ نِزاعُ

    If this world turns its face from you

    And becomes at odds with your contentment

  2. فَاحذَرْ بَنِيْها واحترِزْ من شَرِّهم

    إنَّ البَنِيْنَ لأُمِّهمْ أتْبَاعُ

    Then beware of its sons and protect yourself from their evil

    For the sons will surely follow their mother
