Original text and translations

Latin text Ego flos campi et lilium convallium. Sicut lilium inter spinas sic amica mea inter filias. Sicut malum inter ligna silvarum, sic dilectus meus inter filios. Sub umbra illius quem desideraveram sedi, et fructus ejus dulcis gutturi meo. Introduxit me Rex in cellam vinariam ordinavit in me charitatem.

English translation I am the rose of Sharon and the lily of the valleys. As the lily among the thorns, so is my love among the daughters. As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight: and his fruit was sweet to my taste. He brought me into the cellar of wine, he set in order charity in me.
