Dialogue
Language: French (Français) 
A ma cavale attelée au charde Pharaon
je te compare.
Mon bien-aimé est à moi comme un bouquet de
myrrhe qui repose entre mes seins.
Que tu es belle ma bien-aimée;
tes yeux sont des colombes.
Comme le lis entre les chardons
telle est ma bien-aimée entre les jeunes filles.
Comme le pommier parmi les arbres du verger,
tel est mon bien-aimé parmi les jeunes hommes.
J’ai désiré som ombrage et m’y suis assise
et son fruit est doux à ma bouche
Il m’a menée au cellier du vin
et la bannière qu’il dresse sur moi c’est l’amour.
Filles de Jérusalem, n’éveillez pas la bien-aimée
avant l’heure de son bon plaisir.

From the Song of Songs, Chapter 1 verses 9 & 13, Chapter 2 verses 2 & 3, Chapter 4 verse 16, Chapter 5 verse 8.
