I sleep, but my heart waketh:  
I sleep, but my heart watcheth:  
it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying,  
it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying,  
Open to me, my sister, [my spouse,]  
Open to me, my sister, [my spouse,]

Latin.png Latin text

Ego dormio, et cor meum vigilat:
vox dilecti mei pulsantis,
Aperi mihi, soror mea, [sponsa,]
amica mea, columba mea, [formosa mea, speciosa mea,] immaculata mea.
Quia caput meum plenum est rore,
et cincinni mei guttis noctium.

Bracketed words not in the Vulgate.

English.png English translation

I sleep, but my heart watcheth:
it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying,
Open to me, my sister, [my spouse,]
my love, my dove, [my comely one, my fair one,] my undefiled:
For my head is filled with dew,
and my locks with the drops of the night.
