1 Akheer fagri maachi be sahiih
min matmuus yihajji be kidib.
2 Al‑niiye fi l‑khidme bala maʼrafa ma adiile
wa l‑ajala tarmi siidha fi l‑khata.
3 Nifaakh al‑insaan bas yitallif derbah
wa battaan hu yugumm yazʼal didd Allah.
4 Al‑khuna yikattir rufgaanak
wa laakin al‑fagri,
rafiigah kula yaabaah.
5 Al‑yachhad be kidib,
ma yajʼalooh bari
wa l‑kaddaab kula ma yanja.
6 Be kalaam halu,
naas katiiriin yigarrubu al‑masaaʼiil
wa l‑yanti al‑hadaaya,
ayyi naadum yiraafigah.
7 Al‑fagri,
akhwaanah yaabooh
wa rufgaanah kula yibaʼʼudu minnah.
Kan yihajji kalaamah kula,
ma fi naadum yasmaʼah.
8 Al‑yalga al‑hikma,
yihibb nafsah
wa l‑yahfad aglah,
yalga al‑kheer.
9 Al‑yachhad be kidib,
ma yajʼalooh bari
wa l‑kaddaab kula yiddammar.
10 Ma bichaabih le l‑matmuus
yiʼiich fi l‑raaha
wa ziyaada min da,
kan al‑abid yahkim fi l‑muluuk.
11 Al‑ruuh al‑tawiile illa le l‑aagliin.
Al‑insaan yicharrif nafsah
kan yilhammal khata al‑aakhariin.
12 Khadab al‑malik misil gargaraan al‑duud
laakin ridaayah misil al‑matar le l‑gechch.
13 Akbar masiibe le l‑abu
kan wileedah matmuus
wa l‑mara al‑mukhaalife
misil naggaat almi.
14 Al‑beet wa l‑maal
yinlagu warasa min al‑abbahaat
wa laakin al‑zooja al‑muwaafge,
Allah bas yantiiha.
15 Al‑kasal yilizz fi l‑noom al‑chadiid
wa l‑yitabbig iideenah yumuut min al‑juuʼ.
16 Al‑hafad al‑wasiiye hafad nafsah
wa l‑talag al‑derib waddar nafsah.
17 Al‑mahanna fi l‑miskiin deen.
Allah yikaffiih le siidah.
18 Addib wileedak
wakit indak acham foogah
achaan inta ma tukuun sabab mootah.
19 Waajib al‑zaʼʼaal yikaffi khasaarit fiʼilah.
Kan gult tikaffi leyah,
yisawwiih battaan.
20 Asmaʼ al‑wasiiye wa akhbal al‑adab
achaan fi l‑akhiir tabga hakiim.
21 Al‑insaan indah ahdaaf katiiriin
wa laakin kharaar Allah hu bas al‑yukuun.
22 Adiil le l‑insaan yukuun amiin.
Akheer fagri min tukuun kaddaab.
23 Al‑khoof min Allah
yijiib al‑haya le l‑insaan.
Ayyi masiibe ma tajiih
wa yunuum be amaan.
24 Al‑kaslaan yidiss iidah fi l‑gadah
laakin le khachmah kula ma yagdar yijiibha.
25 Adrub al‑chammaati,
al‑jaahil yalga agul.
Luum al‑faahim,
hu yalga maʼrafa.
26 Al‑yitaʼʼib abuuh wa yatrud ammah
yijiib al‑eeb wa l‑chamaate sawa.
27 Ya wileedi,
kan ma tasmaʼ al‑wasiiye
tibaʼʼid min kalaam al‑maʼrafa.
28 Al‑chaahid al‑ma naafiʼ yichchammat fi l‑chariiʼa
wa lisaan al‑aasi indah illa l‑zulum.
29 Al‑ikhaab saabit le l‑chammaatiin
wa l‑farich le dahar al‑mukhaffaliin.
