1. دَعِ الرِياءَ لِمَن لَجَّ الرِياءُ بِهِ

    في الأَمرِ بِالبَذلِ وَاِذكُر ذِلَّةَ العَدَمِ

    Leave ostentation to those who are obsessed by ostentation

    In commanding generosity, and remember the humiliation of non-existence

  2. وَمُت عَلى الدِرهَمِ المَنقوشِ مَوتَ فَتىً

    رَأى المَماتَ عَلَيهِ أَكرَمَ الكَرَمِ

    Die on the engraved coin the death of a noble man

    Who sees death upon it as the utmost generosity

  3. وَعَدّ عَن ذا وَعَن هَذا وَقَولِهِمُ

    الذِكرُ يَبقى وَتَفنى لذَّةُ النِعَمِ

    And abstain from this and that and their saying

    Remembrance remains while the pleasure of blessings perishes

  4. لَولا غِناكَ لَكُنتَ الكَلبَ عِندَهُمُ

    فَإِن أَبَيتَ فَجَرِّب وَاِشقَ بِالنَدَمِ

    If not for Your richness, I would be a dog to them

    So if you refuse, then try and struggle with regret
