1. If it were not for Saniyu ad-Dawlah ibn Muhammad
Good deeds would not be known and recognized

2. How can I praise you when they have already
Described your sublime traits as indescribable?

3. As for Damascus, through you it's a garden
That does not lack clouds or rain

4. A land where you reside and your name resonates
In every corner, diminishing and amplifying

5. The needy do not ask in it because when they saw
The honor of self-sufficiency in it, they became self-sufficient
