ولي خط وللأيام خط   
و بينهما مخالفة المداد
فاكتبه سواد في بياض
و تكتبه بياض في سواد 
I have a pen and Time has a pen
The only difference between them is the ink
I write with black (ink) on white (paper)
and Time writes with white (ink) on black (hair)

Regarding ink :

The Pen has been lifted, and the ink has dried...

a phrase meaning: everything has been decreed or settled". [At-Tirmidi]
