ما من الظرف عنده الدهرَ ثاوٍ

كمن الظرف عنده ابن سبيل

Misfortune oft' visits those with time to spare

Unlike those with duties, hardly troubled by care

خلق ما يكاد يصدر عنه

لطف خلقٍ إلا بألف كفيل

He whose nature is kind, whose spirit is fair

Will spread goodness with the aid of the Lord's loving care
