1. You built on piety from God a mosque,
And the best buildings of worshippers are mosques.

2. So say in a known decoration above a blessing,
For its apparent beauty the sea is envious of it.

3. It has various beautiful features, but its decoration
Is from the populated mosque of God the One.

4. It is the mosque of benevolence, beauty and which
Zayd, Amr and Khalid approved of.

5. The darkness' meteors have shaken hands with its balconies,
So it is not between the meteors except asleep.

6. Its high minaret has guided the neighbors,
So no one is lost from it and no one is deviating from it.

7. The bells of neighborhoods got a painful cry,
And fear, so no arms were extended to them.

8. The patriarchs cried over them in the darkness,
And they are before them discarded like pillows.

9. With this the days have fulfilled what is between its people,
The calamities of a people with another people are benefits.
