1. A garden of delights in a desolate land,
An oasis of joy in the flames of hell.

2. Endowed with every pleasure,
Delight and happiness galore.

3. Illuminated by brilliant suns,
Lit up by shining stars.

4. Its roof appears to be
Flowers that rain never withers.

5. Water, pure and plentiful,
Like tears of the heartbroken.

6. Each pool appears to be
Affection in conscience.

7. In it, almost visible,
Are the pupils of the blind.

8. The water spouts recount
Marvels carved of crystal.

9. Inlaid with marble
Like embroidery on silk.

10. We live by it, revived by
The sweet scent of incense.

11. Never tiring of this place,
Through the ages.
