1. بغربي قاعة الأنوار أمست

    بدور العز مشرقةً زواهر

    On the western side of the Hall of Lights, evening found

    the full moons of glory radiant and shining.

  2. سمت ظرفاً وقد صحت

    بناءً يروق بحسنه كل النواظر

    It rose in elegance and proved sound

    in structure, its beauty delighting every eye.

  3. فلا زالت بمنشيها المفد

    دى بشير المجد سامية الدوار

    So may it ever, through its cherished builder—

    Bashir of glory—remain lofty in its precincts;

  4. وأقمار السعادة والتهاني

    بذروة وكنها السامي ظواهر

    and may the moons of happiness and felicitations

    appear at the summit of its lofty nest.
