وَمَنْ يَزرَعِ المَعروفَ يَجْنِ بِهِ الثّنا

ولا يَغرسُ المعروفَ إِلّا اِبنُ ماجِدِ

Whoever sows good deeds will reap praise,

And none shall plant good deeds but the noble one.

ثَناءٌ حَميدٌ خَيرُ ما اِكتَسَبَ الفَتى

وَشَأنُ كَريمِ الطّبعِ كَسْبُ المَحامِدِ

Praiseworthy and virtuous deeds are the best gains of a young man,

And it is the nature of the generous to earn epithets of praise.
