3 On my bed rby night
I sought shim whom my soul loves;
tI sought him, but found him not.
2 I will rise now and go about the city,
in uthe streets and in the squares;
I will seek shim whom my soul loves.
I sought him, but found him not.
3 vThe watchmen found me
as they went about in the city.
“Have you seen him whom my soul loves?”
when I found shim whom my soul loves.
I wheld him, and would not let him go
until I had xbrought him into my mother's house,
and into the chamber of yher who conceived me.
