أَجوَدُ النّاسِ مُنفِقٌ كلَّ شيءٍ

أَجوَدُ النّاسِ مُنفِقٌ كلَّ شيءٍ

نَالَ حتّى الَّذي بِهِ يَتَجمَّل

The most generous of people gives away everything

The most generous of men spends everything

he has acquired—even what he adorns himself with.

He gained even what adorns him

إِنَّ ثَوباً لَبستُه لَجَميلٌ

إِنَّ ثَوباً لَبستُه لَجَميلٌ

وَعَلى غَيري حيثُ قَد صارَ أَجمَل

وَعَلى غَيري حيثُ قَد صارَ أَجمَل

Indeed, a garment I have worn is truly beautiful;

A garment once I wore was beautiful

and it is more beautiful once it has come to be on someone else.

And on another it became even more beautiful
