1. قَمَرُ السَماءِ وَشَمسُها اِجتَمَعا

    بِالسَعيدِ ماغابا وَما طَلَعا

    The moon of the sky and its sun have come together.

    At al-Saʿid, they neither set nor rose.

  2. ما وارَت الأَستارُ مِثلَهُما

    مَن ذا رَأى هَذا وَمَن سَمِعا

    Never have curtains concealed a pair like them.

    Who has seen this, and who has heard of it?

  3. دامَ السُرورُ لَهُ بِها وَلَها

    وَتَهَنَّيا طولَ الحَياةِ مَعا

    May joy endure for him with her, and for her.

    And may they be happy together throughout life.
