Latin text

Veni, dilecte mi, egrediamur in agrum, commoremur in villis,

mane surgamus ad vineas, videamus si floruit vinea,

si flores fructus parturiunt, si floruerunt mala punica:

ibi dabo tibi ubera mea.

English translation

Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the fields, and lodge in the vilages;

let us go out early to the vineyards, and see whether the vines have budded,

whether the grape blossoms have opened and the pomegranates are in bloom.

There I will give you my breasts.
