يا جامع المالِ كيما يستفيدَ غنى

ورفعةً وعُلا دعني وإقلالي

O gatherer of wealth, so that you may benefit from riches

And elevation and height, leave me alone with my poverty

حسبي القناعة لا أبغي بها بدلاً

غنى القناعة خيرٌ من غنى المالِ

Contentment is enough for me, I do not want anything else

The riches of contentment are better than the riches of money
