[αʅƚαɳ]

نزل منه بوادٍ غير ذي زرع
He's barking up the wrong tree

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

ولقدْ وقفْت على ديارِهمُ ... وطلولُها بيد البلـــى نهْبُ
وبكيْتُ حتى ضجّ من لغبٍ... نِضوي وعجّ بعذليَ الرّكبُ
وتلفتّتْ عيني فمُذ خفيتْ ... عنّي الطّلولُ تلفّتَ القلــبُ

الشريف الرضي

I stopped at their deserted dwelling
That has turned into sheer dilapidated ruins
And so passionately lamented
That my commotion startled my camel
And my travel companions acridly censured me
ِAs we pressed on
I longingly gazed at the remains of the camp
And when my eyes could discern it no more
My heart fondly and eagerly turned its attention to it

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

أنشط من ظبي مُقمر
Friskier than a deer on a moonlit night

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

لا تهرف بما لا تعرف
Do not talk about that which you know nothing about

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

إن الهوى الهوان
Uncontrollable lust will lead to humiliation

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

لا خير في أرَبٍ ألقاكَ في لهبٍ

There's no goodness in a goal
that throws you into a burning flame

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

أساء سمعاً فأساء إجابة
He heard it wrongly and gave a wrong answer

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

ربك وصاحبك لا تكذب عليهما
Never lie to your God or to your friend

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

بركة العمر حسن العمل
One's life is blessed by the right performance of duty

 

[αʅƚαɳ]

تَراهُ إِذا ما جئتهُ مُتَهَلِّلاً .. كَأَنَّكَ مُعطيهِ الَّذي أَنتَ سائِلُه

When you go to him seeking a favor
You'll find him in good spirits
As if you were giving him that which you are asking for
