May these vows and this marriage be blessed
May it be sweet milk
This marriage, like wine and halvah
May this marriage offer fruit and shade
Like the date palm.
May this marriage be full of laughter
Our every day a day in paradise
May this marriage be a sign of compassion
A seal of happiness here and hereafter.
May this marriage have a fair face and a good name
An omen as welcomes the moon in a clear blue sky.
I am out of words to describe
How spirit mingles in this marriage.
