I slept but my heart was awake,
My beloved was knocking the door,
I was not in my garments,
How I'm going to put them on now?
I had already bathed my feet,
I did not want to soil them,
My darling put her hand to the latch,
My heart thrilled within me,
I arose to open to my beloved.
Daughter of the light you've ravished my heart,
My beautiful charm,
How sweet is your love my bride,
The glance of your eyes disturbs my blood,
Your love is much better than wine
Your lips pink and soft, distil nectar
The kisses of your mouth ,
So desirable let us make haste
Flawless daughter of the light
Born with sparkling flesh,
Set me a seal upon your heart
I would love to stay intact forever
Love is strong as death
And many waters cannot quench love.
