مَولايَ تُرى هَل تُعطَفُ الأَعطافُ

أَو تُغمَدُ في جُفونِها الأَسيافُ

My master, do you think the shoulders will bend

Or the swords will return to their sheaths?

ما يُعوِزُكَ الرِّفدُ الذي تُسأَلُهُ

بَل يُعوِزُكَ الإسعادُ والإِسعافُ

What you lack is not the support you are asked for

But happiness and helping others
