اِنصَح فَإِنَّ النُصحَ لِلمَرءِ مِث

لُ الغَيثِ أَروى بِوابِلٍ وَبَغَش

لُ الغَيثِ أَروى بِوابِلٍ وَبَغَش

Offer counsel, for counsel to a person is like

rain: it gives drink in downpours and light showers.

وَراقِبِ اللَهَ أَن تَغُشَّ فَقَد

وَراقِبِ اللَهَ أَن تَغُشَّ فَقَد

يَفسُدُ رَأيُ اللَبيبِ حينَ يُغَش

يَفسُدُ رَأيُ اللَبيبِ حينَ يُغَش

And be mindful of God lest you deceive, for

even a discerning person's judgment is spoiled when they are deceived.
