Original text and translations

Latin text

Si ignoras te o pulcherrima mulierum,
egredere et abi post vestigia gregum tuorum
et pasce haedos tuos juxta tabernacula pastorum
equitatui meo in curribus Pharaonis
assimulavi te amica mea.

Pulchrae sunt genae tuae sicut turturis collum tuum,
sicut monilia murenulas aureas faciemus tibi vermiculatas argento.
