1. Three moons that cannot be compared to any shining star
Emerged to paradise, their faces veiled
١. ثَلاثُ بُدورٍ ما يُزَنَّ بِزِنيَةٍ
خَرَجنَ إِلى التَنعيمِ مُعتَجِراتِ
2. They uncovered sun-like faces that shone brightly
And greeted with crescents faces that were veiled
٢. حَسَرنَ عَن أَمثالِ الشُموسِ إِضاءَةً
وَلَبَّينَ بِالإِهلالِ مُعتَمِراتِ
3. And they came walking gently like
Cats walk on carpets of leaves
٣. وَأَقبَلنَ يَمشينَ الرُوَيدا كَمِثلِ ما
تَمشي القَطا في أَلحُفِ الحَبَراتِ
