1. The auspicious one said of this wedding boasting
Describe it in the best description O poet

2. So they obeyed him and said what befits it
Of congratulations and descriptions when it occurred

3. And I describe what I have known of
The sublime qualities though I fall short apologizing

4. So the mouth of Beirut has become joyfully named
With it and its joys it stood with those who attended

5. It was brought with distinguished gentlewomen
Worthy of its glory it remains esteemed

6. And walked in a procession almost as if its stars
Retold the stars of the heavens where it flowed

7. No wonder both spouses are branches of a lofty
Origin thanked by all creation

8. I mean the sons of Bayhem whose reputation is good
In every place like the scent of musk spreading

9. Especially the groom whom knowledge has witnessed for
When he attained it studying

10. His actions match his name but he is a man
Known for the morals of character he gained

11. Perfection comes to him and gentle speech though
You see praise of him plentiful in existence

12. May he and his precious wedding remain in bliss
Successful with fortune manifest in them

13. I said to him be among what we date
And last long like two suns and moons
