1. حَتّى مَتى ذو التيهِ في تيهِهِ

    أَصلَحَهُ اللَهُ وَعافاهُ

    How long will the haughty man remain in his haughtiness?

    May God set him right and grant him well-being.

  2. يَتيهُ أَهلُ التيهِ مِن جَهلِهِم

    وَهُم يَموتونَ وَإِن تاهو

    The haughty behave haughtily out of their ignorance,

    yet they die, however haughty they may be.

  3. مَن طَلَبَ العِزَّ لَيَبقى بِهِ

    فَإِنَّ عِزَّ المَرءِ تَقواهُ

    Whoever seeks honor so that he may endure through it—

    then surely a person's honor is his piety.

  4. لَم يَعتَصِم بِاللَهِ مِن خَلقِهِ

    مَن لَيسَ يَرجوهُ وَيَخشاهُ

    None of His creatures has held fast to God

    without hoping in Him and fearing Him.
