One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth," he said as pointing to one of his friends, and said, pointing to another one, "He is Success, and I am Love." Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home."

فأوضح لها أحدهم قائلا: هذا اسمه (الثروة) وهو يومئ نحو احد اصدقائه، وهذا (النجاح) وهو يومئ نحو الآخر وأنا (المحبة) ،
وأكمل قائلا: والآن ادخلي وتناقشي مع زوجك من منا تريدان أن يدخل منزلكم.

فغمرت السعادة زوجها وقال: ياله من شئ حسن، وطالما كان الأمر على هذا النحو فلندعوا (الثروة) .
دعيه يدخل و يملئ منزلنا بالثراء!

His wife disagreed. "My dear, why don’t we invite Success?"
فخالفته زوجته قائلة: عزيزي، لم لا ندعو (النجاح)؟

Their daughter-in- law was listening from the other corner of the house.
She jumped in with her own suggestion: "Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love."

كل ذلك كان على مسمع من زوجة ابنهم وهي في احد زوايا المنزل.
فأسرعت باقتراحها قائلة: اليس من الأجدر ان ندعوا (المحبة) ؟ فمنزلنا حينها سيمتلئ بالحب!

" Let us heed our daughter-in- law’s advice," said the husband to his

" Go out and invite Love to be our guest."
اخرجي وادعي (المحبة) ليحل ضيفا علينا!

The woman went out and asked the three old men, "Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest."

خرجت المرأة وسألت الشيوخ الثلاثة: أيكم (المحبة)؟ ارجو ان يتفضل بالدخول ليكون ضيفنا.

Love got up and started walking toward the house.
The other two also got up and followed him.
Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: "I only invited Love; Why are you coming in?"
