Original text and translations

Latin text Anima mea liquefacta est ut dilectus locutus est; quæsivi, et non inveni illum; vocavi, et non respondit mihi. Invenerunt me custodes civitatis; percusserunt me, et vulneraverunt me. Tulerunt pallium meum custodes murorum. Adjuro vos, filiæ Jerusalem, si inveneritis/inveritis dilectum meum, nuntietis ei quia amore langueo.

English text My heart had melted at the sound of my beloved’s voice; I sought him, and found him not; I called, and he did not answer me. The watchmen of the city found me; they struck me, and wounded me. The watchmen of the walls took away my veil. I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my beloved/turn to my beloved, tell him that I languish with love.
