1. الرَّوْضُ زَهَا وَعَارضُ النهرِ بَدَا

    يَحْكِيِ الزَّرَدَا

    The garden is adorned and the riverbank is displayed

    It tells of chrysolite

  2. وَالقطْرُ هَمَى وَالزَّهْرُ لَمَّا عَقَدَا

    حَلَّ العُقَدَا

    And the raindrop ambled and the flower when it bloomed

    The knots were untied

  3. وَالسوسنُ والاقَاحُ لَمَّا نُضِدَا

    عِقْداً نَضَدَا

    And the lily and anemones when they were freshly plucked

    Formed a well-strung necklace
