Wisdom No. 108: Two people died and took regret with them: one who had and did not eat ...
حکمت شماره ۱۰۸: دو کس مردند و حسرت بردند: یکی آن که داشت و نخورد و دیگر آن که دانست و نکرد.
Two people died and carried regrets: one who had and did not eat (use), and the other who knew and did not act.
دو کس مردند و حسرت بردند: یکی آن که داشت و نخورد و دیگر آن که دانست و نکرد.
No one sees a miser as virtuous,
Without striving to speak of his faults.
کس نبیند بخیل فاضل را
که نه در عیب گفتنش کوشد
And if a generous person has two hundred sins,
His generosity covers up the faults.
ور کریمی دو صد گنه دارد
کرمش عیبها فرو پوشد
