1. On the like of this position, there is no alternative to building
For every elevated building is less than this building

2. Contemplate and you will find it a garden of delight
Wherein all happiness is unveiled and gathered

3. It has an elegance that rises above all elegance
And here it is, a goodly garden with thriving vegetation

4. A place wherein the human spirit bird calls out
Saying, behold, all beauties are here

5. An honorable place, all its times are acceptance
And a seat of truth in whose plains there is no hardship

6. The state of affairs calls out to the guest when he comes
Oh our guest, if only you would visit us to find us

7. The singular one of the age confronted glory with his might
To renew it in the mold of beauty and took great care

8. And this brilliant transcendent one achieved with what
He erected of its pillars, the epitome of purpose

9. Perfection of beauty is complete for him from every side
And through sound judgment it has become flawless

10. So it is like the full moon in nobility and like the garden in fragrance
And like the sun when it rises and like the wild cows when they chime

11. It contains an ascending fortune and abundant glory
Whereupon this seat of glory and loftiness was established

12. Thus the door of victory, opening, and acceptance does not cease
And he who built it does not cease to be in might and ease

13. And may its builder remain forever powerful and supported
For him praise lives and eulogies are composed
