Translation
Quam pulcra es
Language: Latin  after the Latin
Quam pulcra es et quam decora, Carissima in deliciis. Statura tua assimilate est palme, Et ubera tua botris. Caput tuum ut Carmelus, Collum tuum turris eburnea. Veni, dilecte mi, egrediamur in agrum, Et videamus si flores fructus parturierunt, Si floruerunt mala Punica. Ibi dabo tibi ubera mea. Alleluia.
