Latin text

Guttur tuum sicut vinum optimum, dignum dilecto meo ad potandum,

labiisque et dentibus illius ad ruminandum

Ego dilecto meo et ad me conversio eius.

Thy throat like the best wine, worthy for my beloved to drink,

and for his lips and his teeth to ruminate.

I to my beloved, and his turning is towards me.
