Hekayat 55 from Chapter 8 of Golestan of Saadi

Posted on December 10, 2024 by @hamed 33 1

English Translation for Hekayat

A friendship that takes a lifetime to build should not be ruined in a moment.

A stone takes many years to become a piece of ruby,

Beware not to break it with one breath of a stone.

متن حکایت

دوستی را که به عمری فرا چنگ آرند، نشاید که به یک دم بیازارند.

سنگی به چند سال شود لعل پاره‌ای

زنهار تا به یک نفسش نشکنی به سنگ
