Upon my bed at night
I sought him whom my
soul loves.
I sought him but found him not,
I called him but he gave
no answer.
I will rise now and go about
the city
in the streets and in the
squares.
I will seek him whom my
soul loves.
I sought him but found
him not.
The sentinels found me,
as they went about in the city.
"Have you seen him whom
my soul loves."
