Translation by Bible or other Sacred Texts
Le Songe
Language: French (Français) after the Latin
Sur ma couche la nuit j’ai cherché celui que mon coeur aime. Je l’ai cherché mais ne l’ai pas trouvé. Je me lèverai donc et parcourrai la ville dans les rues et sur les places, Je chercherai celui que mon coeur aime; Je l’ai cherché mais ne l’ai pas trouvé. Les gardes m’ont rencontrée ceux qui font la ronde dans la ville, Avez-vous vu celui que mon coeur aime? Filles de Jérusalem, n’éveillez pas la bien-aimée avant l’heure de son bon plaisir.
From verses 1-5.
