Capilli tui sicut greges caprarum
Capilli tui sicut greges caprarum
Et dentes tui sicut greges tonsarum.
Et dentes tui sicut greges tonsarum.
Veni de Libano, veni coroberis.
Veni de Libano, veni coronaberis.
Surge propera, surge sponsa mea,
Surge propera, surge sponsa mea,
Surge dilecta mea, immaculata mea,
Surge dilecta mea, immaculata mea,

Your hair is like flocks of goats,
Your hair is like flocks of goats,
Your teeth are like rows of oars.
Your teeth are like rows of oars.
Come from Lebanon, come coroberis (?).
Come from Lebanon, come and you will be crowned.
Arise quickly, arise my bride
Arise quickly, arise my bride
Arise my precious, my spotless one,
Arise my precious, my spotless one,

O quam tu pulchra es,
Amica mea, columba mea,
Formosa mea
Oculi tui columbarum
Capilli tui sicut greges caprarum
Et dentes tui sicut greges tonsarum.
Veni de Libano, veni coronaberis.
Surge propera, surge sponsa mea,
Surge dilecta mea, immaculata mea,
Surge, veni, quia amore langueo.

O how beautiful you are,
My girlfriend, my dove,
My beautiful one,
Your eyes are those of doves
Your hair is like flocks of goats,
Your teeth are like rows of oars.
Come from Lebanon, come and you will be crowned.
Arise quickly, arise my bride
Arise my precious, my spotless one,
Arise, come, because I languish in love.
