Al-ʻUzzā (العزى‎)

Goddess of love, protection, and might,
Whose sacred trees hold a ring of endless light,
Thou art bathed in beauty to our sight.

Sister to destiny and prosperity,
Triune but not interchangeably,
We offer our worship and sensuality.

Most exalted Lady, highest and most kind,
To Thee ever turns the hopeful and weary mind;
Under Thy gaze are lovers entwined.

Let us swear oaths in Thy holy name,
That in our failures none but ourselves are to blame,
But our successes only add to Thy worship and fame.

The garden of earthly delights is Thine own,
The grove of heavenly joy is Thine alone,
It is only through Thee that joy is ever known.
