O glory of the rose, and O its pride,
Oh you rose's noble one, pride of all,
when they likened beautiful women's cheeks to it,
When they compared in you, cheeks of the fair,

لِلزَّهرِ سُلطاناً بِكُلِّ الزّمانْ
they made the rose, despite its frailty,
Made the rose, in its frailty supreme,
a sultan over the flowers for all time.
Over all blossoms, for all time to wear.
