وَكَأَنَّما البِرَكُ المِلاءُ تَحُفُّها

أَنواعُ ذاكَ الرَوضِ وَالزَهرِ

And it was as though the shining lake was surrounded

By all the flowers and plants of that garden.

بُسطٌ مِنَ الديباجِ بيضٌ فُروِزَت

أَطرافُها بِفَراوزٍ خُضرِ

A carpet of white brocade inlaid with gems,

Its edges fringed with green.
