1. حيلَةُ البُرءِ صَنعَةٌ لِعَليلِ

    يَتَرَجّى الحَياةَ أَو لِعَليلِه

    The means of healing is a craft for an ailing man

    Who hopes for life—or for his patient.

  2. فَإِذا جاءَت المَنِيَّةُ قالَت

    حيلَة البُرءِ لَيسَ في البُرءِ حيلَه

    Then when Death comes, she says:

    “The means of healing—there is no means in healing.”
