يا غافلاً ما يَرى إلا محاسِنَهُ

ولو دَرَى ما رأى إلا مَساوِيهِ

O heedless one who sees only its beauty

If he knew, he would see only its defects

انظُرْ إلى باطنِ الدُّنيا فظاهرُها

كُلُّ البهائمِ يَجْري طَرفُها فيهِ

Look to the essence of this world, for its façade

Is where the eyes of beasts do roam and play
