1. On auspicious stars was your palace founded,
So it became a servant at your doors, time without end.

2. The earth and sky have faded before your glory,
And pride was for those in your party.

3. This is a house whose stars shine with good fortune,
And its borders are clothed with triumph and victory.

4. Its mirrors bewilder all eyes,
Satisfying them until thoughts are sated.

5. Its pillars of marble and walls of silk,
Its corners ornamented - dew showers upon it.

6. Sights wander its edges, revealing
Beauties beyond all measure.

7. Impregnable atop the heights it stands,
No eagle or vulture may soar to its heights.

8. It has a horizon that shames all others,
As if the shining stars themselves built it.

9. Complete in its perfection and purpose,
Foes vanquished, praise be to God in thanks.

10. For it is the season of tidings and people -
To its doors good news and prophets throng.
