المَرءُ إِن كانَ عاقِلاً وَرِعاً
أَشغَلَهُ عَن عُيوبِ غَيرِهِ وَرَعُه
If a man has wisdom and piety
His piety distracts him from others' faults
كَما العَليلُ السَقيمُ أَشغَلَهُ
عَن وَجَعِ الناسِ كُلِّهِم وَجَعُه
Just as a sick man's illness distracts him
From all people's pains, his own pain distracts him
