1. A pen gifted to me by a gracious moon
Of beautiful creation and pleasing voice

2. A jewel that adorned me with a jewel
Honors draped around my neck

3. White, while ink within its reservoir
Black as musk, intense in fragrance

4. Like the whiteness of eyes, adorned with
Darkness of saturated pupils

5. As if its ink, when scattered
Our pens drawing it on paper

6. Kohl diluted with tears from an applicator
Twilight, thus completing it on the eyelids

7. Voiceless, but it will be for us
An aid in mastering the most eloquent speech
