Sol 6.1

  1. ما بالُ نَفسِكَ لا تَهوى سَلامَتَها

    وَأَنتَ في عَرَضِ الدُنيا تُرَغِّبُها

    What ails your soul, that it does not desire its own safety,

    while you make it crave this world's fleeting goods?

  2. دارٌ إِذا جاءَتِ الآمالُ تَعمُرُها

    جاءَت مُقَدَّمَةَ الآجالِ تَخرِبُها

    A dwelling—whenever hopes come to build it up,

    the vanguard of death comes to lay it waste.

  3. أَصبَحتَ تَطلُبُ دُنيا لَستَ تُدرِكُها

    فَكَيفَ تُدرِكُ أُخرى لَستَ تَطلُبُها

    You have come to seek a world you cannot attain;

    so how can you attain the other world, which you do not seek?
