1. إِذا صَاحَبتَ في أَيّامِ بُؤسٍ

    فَلا تَنسَ المَوَدَّةَ في الرَخاءِ

    When hardship's days have made you friends

    Do not forget that friendship in your ease

  2. وَمَن يُعدِم أَخوهُ عَلى غِناهُ

    فَما أَدّى الحَقيقَةَ في الإِخاءِ

    He who denies his brother in his riches

    Has not fulfilled the true laws of brotherhood

  3. وَمَن جَعَلَ السَخاءَ لِأَقرَبيهِ

    فَلَيسَ بِعارِفٍ طُرُقَ السَخاءِ

    He who reserves his bounty for his kin

    Does not know bounty's paths as he should
