Original text and translations

German.png German text

Wo ist dein Freund hingangen, O du Schönste unter den Weibern?
Wo hat sich dein Freund hingewandt? So wollen wir mit dir ihn suchen.
Mein Freund ist hinabgegangen in seinen Garten, zu den Würzgärtlein,
daß er sich weide unter den Gärten und Rosen breche.
Mein Freund ist mein, und ich bin sein, der unter den Rosen sich weidet.

Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women?
whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee.
My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices,
to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine: he feedeth among the lilies.
