فافْخَر فَإنّ الناسَ فيكَ ثَلاثَةٌ
مُستَعظِمٌ أو حاسِدٌ أو جاهِلُ
وَلَقَد عَلَوتَ فَما تُبالي بَعدَ ما
عَرَفوا أيَحمَدُ أم يَذُمُّ القائِلُ
So take pride, for people toward you are of three kinds:
One who admires, one who envies, and one who is ignorant.
Indeed, you have risen high and no longer care,
Whether the speaker offers praise or blame,
Now that they know who you are.
