Cantares 2

Mein Freund istgleich einem Rehe oderjungen Hirsch. Siehe, er stehet hinter unserer Wand und siehet durchs Fenster und gucket durchs Gitter.

Mi amado es semejante al gamo, ó al cabrito de los ciervos. Helo aquí, está tras nuestra pared, mirando por las ventanas, mostrándose por las rejas.

My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice.

My beloved is like a roe or a young deer. Behold, he stands behind our wall! He looks in at the windows. He glances through the lattice.
