إذا ما غرَسْتَ الخيْرَ في ابْنِ جِدارِ

ظَفِرْتَ بكَنْزٍ منْهُ تحْتَ جِدارِ

If you plant goodness in the heart of a neighbor

You will reap a treasure from him beneath the wall

فشُدَّ علَيْهِ الكَفَّ ذُخْرَ مضنّةٍ

وأسْكِنْ بهِ الأسْرارَ دارَ قَرارِ

So press your palm upon it, storing up effort

And settle with it your soul's abode of rest
