1. وبدا الهلاُن وخلْفَهُ الد

    دُ بران يَسري حيث يسري

    And the crescent appeared, and behind it Al-

    debaran travels by night wherever it travels.

  2. فافهمْ إشارةَ نونِ نُؤْ

    يٍ بالنُضارِ وخاءِ خِدْرِ

    So understand the allusion to the nūn of nuʾ-

    y (“trench”), in gold, and the khāʾ of khidr (“curtained chamber”).
