حکمت شمارهٔ 94

Poet: Saadi

English translation: Rehatsek
گدای نیک انجام به از پادشای بد فرجام.
غمی کز پیش شادمانی بری
به از شادیی کز پسش غم خوری

A mendicant with a good end is better than a padshah with a bad end.

The grief thou sufferest before the joy Is better than the grief endured after joy.

Zameen
