1. ولاعبٍ بالنَّرِد أبْصَرتُه

    والزارُ لا يعصيهِ فيما يرومُ

    I saw a young man playing with dice

    And fate does not disobey him in what he seeks

  2. فهلْ ترى يقصيهِ اعداده

    وهو شقيقُ البدْرِ وهيَ النجومُ

    So do you think his fortune will abandon him?

    For he is the full moon and the stars are his sisters
