Upon my bed by night after him I yearned, | |||
for whom my spirit longs, | |||
But I found him not, though wanted him to come. | |||
I rose and left I my bed. | |||
I rose and went forth throughout the city streets, | |||
wherein my love might be | |||
but found him not though earnestly I sought him | |||
in the broad ways down town. | |||
The watchmen found me. Had they, I asked, seen him, | |||
for whom my spirit longs. | |||
A little while after by them had I passed | |||
my lost soul found my love. | |||
I held him tight, for I would not let him go, | |||
And brought him to my home | |||
Into the chamber of her who conceived me | |||
I led him whom I love. | |||
I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem | |||
by the roes of the fields | |||
that you stir him not up, nor awaken him | |||
Until it pleases him. | |||
Who now is this, who comes from the wilderness | |||
with great pillars of smoke | |||
Is she not perfumed with all the world’s spices, | |||
with frankincense and myrrh. | |||
The German text is quite a free paraphrase of the Song 3:1-6. I have therefore also been quite free in my paraphrase of the German, moving it closer to the original text. I have left the translation request here in the hope that someone else will produce a more accurate translation of the German text that Schütz has used.
