حکمت شمارهٔ 40

Poet: Saadi

English translation: Rehatsek
نه هر که در مجادله چُست، در معامله درست.
بس قامتِ خوش که زیرِ چادَر باشد
چون باز کنی مادر مادر باشد

Not everyone who is brisk in dispute is correct in business.

Many a stature concealed by a sheet If revealed appears to be the mother of one’s mother.
