حکمت شمارهٔ 70

Poet: Saadi

English translation: Rehatsek
شدت نیکان روی در فرج دارد و دولت بدان سر در نشیب.
هر که را جاه و دولت است و بدان
خاطری خسته در نخواهد یافت
خبرش ده که هیچ دولت و جاه
به سرای دگر نخواهد یافت

Nevertheless good men retain a cheerful countenance in adversity whilst the rich droop their heads even in prosperity.

Who possesses wealth and dignity but therewith Succours not those whose minds are distressed, Inform him that no kind of wealth and dignity He will enjoy in the mansion of the next world.
