Rosen sænker sit Hoved, tungt Af Dug og Duft, Og Pinjerne svaje saa tyst og mat i lumre Luft. Kilderne vælte det tunge Sølv I døsig Ro, Minareterne pege mod Himlen op I Tyrketro, Og Halvmaanen driver saa jævnt afsted Over det jævne Blaa, Og den kysser Rosers og Liljers Flok, Alle de Blomster smaa I Seraillets Have, I Seraillets Have.

Les roses penchent leurs têtes, Lourdes de rosée et de parfum Et doucement les pins parasols se balancent en silence Dans l'air étouffant. Le lourd argent des sources se déverse Dans un calme demi-sommeil Des minarets montrent le ciel Et leur foi turque, Et un croissant de lune passe doucement Sur ce pur azur, Et il embrasse le massif de roses et de lis, Toutes les petites fleurs, Dans le jardin du sérail Dans le jardin du sérail.
