إِن حالَ لَونُ الرَأسِ عَن حالِهِ

فَفي خِضابِ الرَأسِ مُستَمتِعُ

If the color of the head changes from its condition,

Then in dyeing the head there is enjoyment.

هَب مَن لَهُ شَيبٌ لَهُ حيلَة

فَما الَّذي يَحتالَهُ الأَصلَعُ

Give to him who has gray hair a stratagem,

So what can the bald man scheme?
