Я ‑‑ цветок полевой, я ‑‑ лилия долин

«Я -- цветок полевой, я -- лилия долин.»
  « ,,Голубица моя белолонная,
Между юных подруг -- словно в тернии крин.»
  « Словно [яблонь]1 в цвету благовонная
[Посредине]2 бесплодных деревьев лесных,
   Милый мой - меж друзей молодых;
[Я под тень его сесть восхотела - и села,
     И плоды его сладкие ела.
Проведите меня в дом вина и пиров,
   Одарите любовною властию,
Положите на одр из душистых цветов:
   Я больна, я уязвлена страстию.
Вот рука его здесь, под моей головой;
   Он меня обнимает другой...
Заклинаю вас, юные девы Шалима,
   Я должна, я хочу быть любима!]3»

Je suis une fleur des champs, je suis un...

« Je suis une fleur des champs, je suis un lys de la vallée. »
« Ma colombe, au sein blanc,
Parmi ses jeunes amies, comme un lys au milieu des épines. »
« Comme un myrte en fleurs parfumées,
Parmi les arbres sans fruit de la forêt,
Mon amour, parmi ses jeunes amies.
Où es-tu, mon amour, ma belle ? »
