Weros Weioso

Rough translation:

The man succeeds who looks into the sun, / who casts his eye into the stars. / The woman finds place who for the mind, indeed, has the heart's soul-burning desire for her. / These who value the natural spiritual aspect, indeed, life, above / their countless searches for the Self, / it is these to whom True Life growing knowledge / brings, the light hidden in shadows.

Structure: odd lines, iambic hexameter with an extra half-foot; even lines, trochaic pentameter; a bit of alliteration here and there; and some assonance and rhyme, but not in a regular pattern (that is, just there by chance).
