Hekayat 72 from Chapter 8 of Golestan of Saadi

English Translation for Hekayat
A disciple without devotion is like a lover without money; a traveler without knowledge is like a bird without wings; a scholar without practice is like a tree without fruit; and an ascetic without knowledge is like a house without a door.
متن حکایت
تلمیذ بی ارادت عاشق بی زر است و روندهٔ بی معرفت مرغ بی پر و عالم بی عمل درخت بی بر و زاهد بی علم خانهٔ بی در.
