Don’t speak of foolish things in your pretence.
Enough! Don’t speak such proud and boastful words!
How long the pompous, self-important speech?
Look at your deeds and state, and have some shame!
For pride’s repulsive, more so in a beggar,
like wet clothes on a cold and snowy day!
2330 How much more boasting, steaming bluster is there,
O you whose house is like the spider’s web?
When has contentment filled your soul with light?
Contentment is a name that you have learnt.
The Prophet said, “What is contentment? Treasure.”
But you can’t tell this treasure from distress.
