Hekayat 32 from Chapter 8 of Glestan of Saadi
English Translation for Hekayat
Whoever does not do good in times of strength will face hardship in times of weakness.
There is no one more ill-fated than the oppressor,
For in times of calamity, they have no friends.
متن حکایت
هر که در حال ِ توانایی نکویی نکند، در وقت ِ ناتوانی سختی بیند.
بد اختر تر از مردمآزار نیست
که روز مصیبت کسش یار نیست
