1. A veil for its owner of fine make
May God protect him for his skillfulness

2. When it appears, you're perplexed by
The diversity of its vivid images

3. You see this one with a helmet on his head
And that with a belt around his waist

4. And this one lined his place with fabric
And the silverware of that glittering

5. And this one with a ring in her hand
And that with a necklace around her neck

6. We compare its weaving whenever
It boasts with its radiant dyes

7. To a meadow that dazzled it with its flowers
Flashes of flickering lightning

8. And with the chosen gem
When its redness intermingled with its blueness

9. So fold it, you who are in his house
As if you did not hang it out to dry
