1. وروضةٍ عَرسُنا مُعَرَّسُها

    حريرُها مشرقٌ وسُندسُها

    And a garden whose resting place is our wedding,

    Its silk is radiant, and so is its fine brocade.

  2. يحكي خدودَ الملاح ثامِرُها

    وأعينَ الغانيات نرجسُها

    Its blossoms mirror the cheeks of beauties,

    And its narcissi, the eyes of lovely women.

  3. اذا نسيم الرياح قابَلَها

    طيَّب ما بيننا تنفُّسُها

    When the breeze of the winds meets it,

    Its breath perfumes the space between us.

  4. تزداد طيباً بمن يحرِّكها

    وعارف حقَّها منكسها

    It grows more fragrant through whoever stirs it,

    And whoever knows its worth turns it upside down.
