لا تَأْمَنَنْ كَيدَ العَدُوْ

وِ فَأَمنُ كيدِهِمُ غَرَرْ

Do not feel secure from the plots of the enemy,

for to feel secure from their plots is delusion.

كُنْ منْه إن كان القَوِيْ

يَ أو الضَّعيفَ على حَذَرْ

Be wary of them, whether they are strong

or weak, always be on your guard.

فالماءُ يُطفي النارَ طب

عَاً في الصَّفاءِ وفي الكَدَرْ

For water can extinguish fire when it is pure

and clean, or when it is muddy and murky.
