هر چه بکاری، همان را درو خواهی کرد
hr chh bkary hman ra dro khoahy krd
As you sow, so shall you reap
意思
Your actions, good or bad, will determine your consequences.
文化背景
This proverb is a simplified version of many verses by Saadi and Rumi. In Persian culture, poetry is the primary source of moral education. The concept of 'Asha' (truth/order) implies that the universe has a moral order. Doing good naturally leads to good, a concept that predates the proverb but is perfectly expressed by it. Many Iranian social dramas (like those by Asghar Farhadi) revolve around a single small lie or action that 'grows' into a massive consequence, illustrating this proverb visually. It is one of the first proverbs children learn. It is used to instill a sense of 'Zat' (inner nature) and responsibility.
Use it for encouragement
While it can be a warning, using it to praise someone's hard work makes you sound very supportive and culturally fluent.
Avoid 'میکاری'
Remember to use the 'be-' prefix (subjunctive) to keep the proverb sounding authentic and timeless.

The 'Wheat and Barley' alternative
If you want to sound even more poetic, use 'Gandom az gandom beruyad, jow ze jow.' It's the 'pro' version of this proverb.
