1. O palm tree of benevolence, a saying
From a steadfast companion

2. Your fronds are nothing but
Like the scintillating star

3. Rather, their face appears as the dawn
Under the lingering darkness

4. And their mother appears
In it with great delight

5. From its two races it received
The purest and gentlest temperament

6. It came with all meanings
According to what you hope for

7. Rather, above what the conscience assumed
The wish of the confider

8. Light of spirit, it walks
The steps of the gentle gazelle

9. It does not settle down submissively
Like quicksilver, restless

10. White, brown, molded
In an image of ivory

11. Two colors or it is a color
In it is the beautiful blend

12. The sun healed its disguise
With the gentlest treatment

13. It does not reveal the saying except
As intense as the neigh of the skittish horse

14. And the saying is dim to it
To which the understanding falls short

15. So the symbol suffices it until
It relieves all needs

16. O adornment of the house, it blooms
Like a rose in a fence

17. The hair of her temple has a spell
In the spell of her eyes, compliant

18. Live well and walk
Rightly guided

19. And if suspicion lurks, be
The purest and most radiant lamp
