Tell me, my only love,
where do you pasture your sheep,
where will you let them rest in the heat of noon?
Why should I lose my way among the flocks of your companions?

Loveliest of women, if you lose your way,
follow in the tracks of the sheep,
graze your goats in the shade of the shepherds' tents.
