1. In Joseph's palace for the lovers there's a night
That the night owls will recount its beauty

2. It gathered Egypt's glories in its dignitaries
So it contained the dignitaries of the lands

3. Its visitors are the essence of time, barely
In its expanse, the visitors commune

4. What fine witnesses for a speech that thrilled
Their hearing and delighted the sights

5. Wondrous is your magic, O sky, for we see
The blossoms of stars, all of them splendid

6. Wondrous is your bounty, O meadows, for here
Is the verdure of roses and their fragrant scent

7. Wondrous is your singing, O songstresses, what can
The birds do after this singing of yours

8. Wondrous are your clothes, O silk, and it's good
That your touches have shaped such effects

9. Tell those who find fault in you, chastity is
In the soul, not the covers

10. The little maids guard around a unique one
Like a necklace designed with chosen pearls

11. And the unique one in the necklace glows with jewelry
From the best with which maidens glow

12. A being like the shaping of dolls, appearing in
Its features for its intelligence are lights

13. She combines the qualities of her parents, so
In her gathered stunning grace and dignity

14. Good tidings to her suitor, and her tidings of him
The fates have been equal in sharing

15. What a fine young man with his intelligence and knowledge
That a vibrant origin makes thrive

16. The perfect couple is the essence of good life that they meet
No discontent in fate could embitter for them
