“Tell me, O you whom my soul loves,
Where do you pasture your flock,
Where do you make it lie down at noon?
For why should I be like one who is veiled
Beside the flocks of your companions?”(A)

Solomon, the Lover, Speaks

(The Bridegroom)


“If you do not know [where your lover is],
O you fairest among women,
Run along, follow the tracks of the flock,
And pasture your young goats
By the tents of the shepherds.

Tell me, you (A)whom my soul loves,
Where do you (B)pasture your flock,
Where do you have it (C)lie down at noon?
For why should I be like one who [a]veils herself
Beside the flocks of your (D)companions?”

Solomon, the Lover, Speaks

“If you yourself do not know,
(E)Most beautiful among women,
Go out on the trail of the flock,
And pasture your young goats
By the tents of the shepherds.
