Tota pulchra es, amica mea,
et macula non est in te;
veni de Libano,
veni, coronaberis de capite Amana,
de vertice Sanir et Hermon
de cubilius leonum,
de montibus pardorum.

 Thou art all fair, O my love,
and there is not a spot in thee.
Come from Libanus,
come: thou shalt be crowned from the top of Amana,
from the top of Sanir and Hermon,
from the dens of the lions,
from the mountains of the leopards.
