Kazma [English translation]

Greetings elders, hello children

I have a new story for you tonight

Excuse me if my tongue slips

A cup of coffee has a 40-year memory!

What i'm saying is a person should be content

The thing called life is a small line

Honor, dignity, pride are all great but

Elbow grease is the most important

Your neighbor's goods will seem more valuable to you

You must lose a fly to catch a trout

With a head like this you won't even be a handle for an axe but

A day will come when you'll be the fool on the tip of a handle

Rice is best cooked in Dimyat*

Compote would go great with it

While you sit back with your stomach growling

The bulgur will be enough for everyone

Even if you wear a robe made of silk

Even if you wash with zam-zam water

To continue with pleasure in the afterlife

You must achieve absolute elbow grease

Your neighbor's goods will seem more valuable to you

You must lose a fly to catch a trout

With a head like this you won't even be a handle for an axe but

A day will come when you'll be the fool on the tip of a handle

A person should not be set back in life

An unfortunate person will fail even the easiest tasks

Don't aspire to be a fool, friends

Those that earn with elbow grease are the happiest people

Your neighbor's goods will seem more valuable to you

You must lose a fly to catch a trout

With a head like this you won't even be a handle for an axe but

A day will come when you'll be the fool on the tip of a handle
