English
Quatrain 9
The Giver, who opened the door of destiny to us,
laid the world's foundation exactly as it should be.
If He withheld something from someone, there was a reason;
He knew you shouldn't hand fine grapes to a donkey.

رباعی شمارهٔ ۹
دادار که بر ما در قسمت بگشاد
بنیاد جهان چنانکه بایست نهاد
آن را که نداد از سببی خالی نیست
دانست سرو به خر نمیباید داد
