شر الاِخلاء مَن يَسعى لِنَرضيه

شر الاِخلاء مَن يَسعى لِنَرضيه

وَلا يَزال عَلَيك الدَهر غَضبانا

وَلا يَزال عَلَيك الدَهر غَضبانا

The worst of friends is one who strives so that we may please him—

The worst of friends is one who seeks to have us please him,

and he remains angry with you forever.

And remains forever angry with you.
