D acu i t-id-yessawaḍen yiyi?
Tura, tura telli t-yettawi tafekkut. Yeqqim ɣef uɣrum, yeqqim ɣef tazwart, yeqqim ɣef taseɣrt. Maca amek kan, ad t-awyet ɣef wayeɣ n tmeṭṭut, ur t-tewweḍ ara kan. Anezri ad nawi tiṭ n ufus n usemi, ad nekhref tasesit.
Acu ara xedmeɣ ass-a?
Tura, ad nkemmel yifses. Ad nkemmel tazwart, ad nkemmel taseɣrt. Ad neɛdel tiṭ n udabu, ad nseqqmeɛ taslent. Ma yili uɛeṛa, ad nesweɣ seg umeslay am wuḍar, ad nessenger tafekkut n tmeṭṭut.
He who stands on his tiptoes does not stand firm; he who stretches his legs does not walk (easily). (So), he who displays himself does not shine; he who asserts his own views is not distinguished; he who vaunts himself does not find his merit acknowledged; he who is self-conceited has no superiority allowed to him.
