The devil finds work for idle hands
الإيد البطالة نجسة
As cool as a cumcumber
حاطط أعصابه فى تلاجة
Tomorrow will take care of itself
أصرف ما فى الجيب يأتيك ما فى الغيب
To the bitter end
على قلبها لطالون
Known to one and all
على سن و رمح
Don't push your luck
مش كل مرة تسلم الجرة
Stick in one's throat
مش نازلى من زور
Sink to one's level
بان على أصله
By hook or by crook
بالطول بالعرض
And this translation is really funny:
In plain English

| may i join you again on your topics i have on my computer some searches like this topic and grammer all u love on my computer i see i must add them to the topic and make it like encyclopedia
الغايب عذره معه
The absent party is not faulty
العبرة بالأعمال وليست بالأقوال
Actions speak louder than words
يزيد الطين بلة
Add fuel to the fire
خاطب الناس على قدر عقولهم
Address people in the way they can understand
لا خاب من استشار
Advice is ever in want
كل شدة وتهون،الصبر مفتاح الفرج
After black clouds, clear weather
من شبّ على شيء شاب عليه
Always has been, always will be
وفسّر الماء بعد الجهد بالماء
After great effort, he explained that water is water
الطيور على أشكالها تقع
Birds of feather flock together
هذا الشبل من ذاك الأسد
A chip of the old block
الأقربون أولى بالمعروف
Charity begins at home
عامل الناس كا تحب أن يعاملوك
Do as you would be done
على قدر لحافك مد رجليك، رحم الله إمرءاً عرف قدر نفسه
Cut your coat according to your cloth
الصلح سيد الأحكام
Conciliation is the matter of the law
الباب ذو الصرير يعيش طويلاً
A creaking gate hangs long
اعمل خير والقه في البحر
Do good and cast it into the sea
ما يأتي بسهولة يذهب بسهولة،ما لا تجلبه الرياح تأخذه الزوابع
Easy come, easy go
الغاية تبرر الوسيلة
The end justifies the means
لكل جواد كبوة
Every tide has its ebb
إنما العبرة بالنهاية
It is the end that counts
كل ابن آدم خطاّء
To err is human
رب ضرة نافعة
Every cloud has a silver lining
الصديق وقت الضيق
A friend in need is a friend indeed
رمية من غير رامي
A flash in the pan
لا نتيجة بدون ألم،لا حلاوة بدون نار
No gains without pains | |
