«عَاشِرْ عَاشِرْ مِسِيرَكْ تِفَارِقْ»

However many years people share and however close they grow, the saying holds that a parting waits for them at the end. Time together can delay that separation, but it cannot remove it from the course of things.

In practice it can soften a goodbye by treating it as the expected course of things. It can also warn against treating present closeness as permanent and encourage a measured, realistic view of attachment.

Use it when someone grieves an ending friendship, partnership, or household arrangement, or as a gentle caution against assuming any companionship is permanent. It suits a reflective, consoling, or mildly resigned tone rather than blame.
