1. في الأَربِعاء لخمسٍ كُنَّ من صَفَرٍ

    بَدْرُ المَسَرَّةِ شاهَدْنا مطالِعَهُ

    On Wednesday, when five days of Safar had passed,

    We witnessed the risings of the full moon of joy.

  2. أَرَّخْتُ طالِعَ داودٍ بمولِدِه

    وكانتِ الشَّمسُ بالجوزاء طالِعَهُ

    I recorded the date of Dawud’s rising at his birth,

    And the sun in Gemini was his ascendant.
