لَعَمريBy my life لَقَدindeed ذُقتُI tasted المَطاعِمَfoods كُلَّهاall of them
لَعَمري لَقَد ذُقتُ المَطاعِمَ كُلَّها

فَما ذُقتُ فيما ذُقتُ أَحلى مِنَ الأَمنِ
By my life, I have tasted every food;
By my life, I have tasted all kinds of food,
Yet of all I have tasted, nothing was sweeter than safety.
Yet found nothing sweeter than security.

مِنَ الخَوفِ كانَ العَيشُ في غايَةِ الحُسنِ
When the fringes of life are free
When the edges of life are free of fear,
Of fear, life is at its most beautiful.
Living is sublime in its perfection.
