يا مَن يُخاطبُ قومَه لِيقودَهُمْ

يا مَن يُخاطبُ قومَه لِيقودَهُمْ

بخِطابِهِ نحوَ الأسَدَّ الأنفَعِ

بخِطابِهِ نحوَ الأسَدَّ الأنفَعِ

O you who address your people to lead them

O you who address your people to lead them

Through your speech toward what is soundest and most beneficial,

with your speech towards the most beneficial path

قلْ ما تقولُ لُهم بوَزنِ عُقولِهِم

قلْ ما تقولُ لُهم بوَزنِ عُقولِهِم

وبوَزنِ عقلِكَ ما يُقالُ لكَ اسمَعِ

وبوَزنِ عقلِكَ ما يُقالُ لكَ اسمَعِ

Say what you say to them by the measure of their minds;

Say what you say to them in tune with their minds

And by the measure of your own mind, listen to what is said to you.

and in tune with your mind what is said to you, listen
