Vineam meam non custodivi.
Indica mihi quem diligit anima mea,
ubi pascas, ubi cubes in meridie,
ne vagari incipiam post greges sodalium tuorum.

My vineyard I have not kept.
Tell me, you whom my soul loves,
where you pasture your flock, where you make it lie down at noon,
lest I begin to wander after the flocks of your companions.
