“Human beings are members of a whole，
in creation of one essence and soul.
If one member is afflicted with pain,
other members uneasy will remain.
If you have no empathy for human pain,
the name of human you cannot retain”
― Saadi-Sufi mystic poem”
据说这首诗刻在联合国大楼入口。维基上有原文以及对应的其他几个英文译版。
Bani Adam
A copy of Saadi Shirazi's works by the Bosniak scholar Safvet beg Bašagić (1870–1934)
Saadi is well known for his aphorisms, the most famous of which, Bani Adam,
is part of the Gulistan. In a delicate way it shows the essence of Ubuntu and
calls for breaking down all barriers between human beings:[7][8]
بنى آدم اعضای یک پیکرند
که در آفرینش ز یک گوهرند
چو عضوى به درد آورد روزگار
دگر عضوها را نماند قرار
تو کز محنت دیگران بی غمی
نشاید که نامت نهند آدمی
Rhyming translations by M. Aryanpoor:
Human beings are members of a whole,
In creation of one essence and soul.
If one member is afflicted with pain,
Other members uneasy will remain.
If you've no sympathy for human pain,
The name of human you cannot retain!

The translations above are attempts to preserve the rhyme scheme of the original while translating into English, but may distort the meaning. What follows is an attempt at a more literal translation of the original Persian:
"Humans (children of Adam) are inherent parts (or more literally, limbs) of one body,
and are from the same valuable essence (or more literally, gem) in their creation.
When the conditions of the time hurt one of these parts,
other parts will be disturbed.
If you are indifferent about the misery of others,
it may not be appropriate to call you a human being."
