1. يا مَن يَروحُ وَيَغتَدي

    بَينَ التَمَرُّدِ وَالجِسارَه

    O you who go forth at evening and at dawn,

    between rebellion and audacity,

  2. ما لِلفَتى وَلِمَتجَرٍ

    أَرباحُهُ فيهِ خَسارَه

    what has a young man to do with a venture

    whose profits are losses?

  3. لا تَتَّجِر في السِيِّئا

    تِ فَإِنَّها بِئسَ التِجارَه

    Do not trade in misdeeds,

    for it is a wretched trade.
