فقیهی پدر را گفت: " هیچ از این سخنان دلاویز متکلمان در من اثر نمی کند, به علت آنکه نمی بینم ایشان را کرداری موافق گفتار ".

ترک دنیا به مردم آموزند                    خویشتن سیم و غله اندوزند

عالمی را که گفت باشد و بس              هر چه گوید نگیرد اندر کس

عالم آن کس بود که بد نکند                 نه بگوید به خلق و خود نکند

A lawyer said to his father, " Those fine speeches of the declaimers make no impression on me, because I do not see their actions correspond with their precepts

They teach people to forsake the world,whilst themselves accumulate property 

A wise man who preaches without practicing will not impress others

That person is wise who abstaineth from sin, not he who teacheth good to others whilst himself commiteth evil

Mike was a small boy, and he hated soap and water. Three or four times every day his mother said to him, " Mike, your hands are very dirty again. Go and wash them." But Mike never really washed them well. He only put his hands in the water for a few seconds and then took them out again.

الحکمة ضالََّةُ الموءمن اینما وجدها اخذها

دانش و حکمت, شتر گمشده اهل ایمان است که هر کجا بیابند آن را بگیرند

Knowledge is the stray camel of the believers

بنی آدم اعضای یک پیکرند                   که در آفرینش ز یک گوهرند

چو عضوی به درد آورد روزگار            دگر عضوها را نماند قرار

تو کز محنت دیگران بی غمی                نشاید که نامت نهند آدمی

Oneness of Mankind       

All men are members of the same body

Created from one essence

If fate brings suffering to one member

The others cannot stay at rest

You who remain indifferent to the burden of pain of others

Do not deserve to be called human

خشم بیش از حد گرفتن, وحشت آرد و لطف بی وقت, هیبت ببرد. نه چندان درشتی کن که از تو سیر گردند و نه چندان نرمی که بر تو دلیر شوند.

درشتی و نرمی به هم در, به است          چو رگزن که جراح و مرهم نه است

Wrath beyond measure produces estrangement and untimely kindness destroys authority. Be neither so harsh as to disgust the people with thee nor so mild as to embolden them

Severity and mildness together are best

Like a bleeder who is a surgeon and also applies a salve

مَن قَرَعَ باباً  وَ لَجَُ وَ لَجَ

هر که دری را بکوبد و اصرار ورزد داخل می شود

Whoever knocks on a door and persists will be allowed in

خَیرُ الامُورِ اَوسَطُها

بهترین کارها میانه روی است

Moderation is the best course of action

Better a wise enemy than a foolish friend a reconciled friend is a double enemy

دشمن دانا بهتر از دوست نادان است .

آشپز كه دوتا شد آش يا شور ميشه يا بي نمك

First Come , First served

آسيا به نوبت

The Beaten road is the safest

آزموده را آزمون خطاست

Hunger is the best sauce

آدم گرسنه ، سنگ را هم ميخورد

اطلبوا العلم و لو بالصین

علم را طلب کنید هر چند در ولایت چین باشد

Seek out knowledge even if you have to take a long journey to China

نظم ار چه به مرتبت بلند است         آن علم طلب که سودمند است

پیغمبر گفت "علم علمان:                علم الادیان و علم الابدان "

در ناف دو علم بوی طیب است          وان هر دو فقیه یا طبیب است

می باش طبیب عیسوی هش           اما نه طبیب آدمی کش

می باش فقیه طاعت اندوز               اما نه نفقیه حیلت آموز

گر هر دو شوی بلند گردی               نزد همه ارجمند گردی

      The Advice of Nizami to His Son

Although poetry be of high dignity

Seek thou the knowledge of what is useful

The Prophet hath said " The science of sciences

Is the science of matter and the science of faith

Is the navel of each is a fragrant odour

In that of the law, and in that of medicine

Endeavour to be a physician with life-giving breath of Jesus

Not the one that puts people to death

Let the law instruct thee in the service of God

Let it not be to thee a teacher of sophistries

If thou become an adept in both

Thou will have reached the summit of excellence

And wilt be held in high estimation in the sight of all men

Teachers   

    
Paint their minds
And guide their thoughts
Share their achievements
And advise their faults

Inspire a love
of knowledge and truth
As you light the path
Which leads our youth

For our future brightens
With each lesson you teach
Each smile you lengthen
Each goal you help reach

For the dawn of each poet
Each philosopher and king
Begins with a Teacher
And the wisdom they bring

A Very Bad Cold

Mina has a very bad cold today

Her nose is red

She coughs and coughs

"I will take you to the doctor," her dad says

Then the doctor looks into her ears

The doctor said, "Open your mouth

Mina coughs and coughs

"You have a very bad cold," says the doctor

"I will give you a shot," he says

"Mina must go home and rest," the doctor tells Mina's dad

Mina rests and rests

She begins to feel a little better

She stops coughing

"My very bad cold is gone," says Mina

"Now we can go outside and play," says Mina

"No," says her dad. "Now I have a very bad cold!"

هرگز از دور زمان ننالیده بودم و روی از گردش آسمان در هم نکشیده, مگر وقتی که پایم برهنه ماند بود و استطاعت پای پوشی نداشتم. به جامع کوفه درآمدم, دلتنگ, یکی را دیدم که پای نداشت, سپاس نعمت حق به جای آوردم و بر بی کفشی صبر کردم.

Aggrieved because I had no shoes

I shuffled down the street

Till someone cried: There stumping goes

A man who has no feet

Then I was instantly aware

That I from pain was free

And thanked God , the Compassionate

For all He'd given me
