    quando ti restano solo due soldi al mondo, compra una pagnotta con uno e un giglio con l'altro.

    kiedy na świecie zostały ci już tylko dwa grosze, z jednym kup bochenek chleba, a z drugim lilię.

    если в мире осталось только две копейки, купите буханку хлеба с одной и лилию с другой.

    коли на світі у вас залишиться лише дві копійки, купіть буханку хліба одним, а лілію іншим.

    جب آپ کے پاس دنیا میں صرف دو پیسہ باقی رہ گئے ہیں تو ، ایک کے ساتھ ایک روٹی ، اور دوسرے کے ساتھ ایک للی خریدیں۔

    当您只剩下两个便士时,请与其中一个一起买一块面包,再与另一个一起买百合花。
