عِندَ الحَوادِثِ مِن أَخيكَ عَزيمَةٌ

حَصداءُ مُبرَمَةٌ وَعَقلٌ فاضِلُ

When faced with misfortunes, your brother has

Steady resolve, a sound mind, and good sense

عَرَفَ الحُقوقَ وَقَصَّرَت أَموالُهُ

عَنها وَضاقَ بِها الغَنيُّ الباخِلُ

He knows rights well, though his means may fall short

The miser with riches feels constricted and tense
