El tormento de la separación
LA ESPOSA:
2 Yo dormía, pero mi corazón velaba,¡Una voz! ¡Mi amado toca a la puerta!«Abreme, hermana míaa, amada1 mía,paloma mía, perfecta míab,pues mi cabeza está empapada2 de rocío,mis cabellosc empapados de la humedad3 de la noche».3 Me he quitado la ropa,¿cómo he de vestirme de nuevoa?He lavado mis piesb,¿cómo los volveré a ensuciar?4 Mi amado metió su mano por la abertura de la puerta,y se estremecieron por él1 mis entrañasa.5 Yo me levanté para abrir a mi amado;y mis manos destilaron mirraa,y mis dedos mirra líquida1,sobre los pestillos de la cerradura.6 Abrí yo a mi amado,pero mi amado se había retirado, se había idoa.Tras1 su hablar salió mi almab.Lo busqué, y no lo halléc;lo llamé, y no me respondiód.7 Me hallaron los guardas que rondan la ciudada,me golpearon y me hirieron;me quitaron de encima mi chal los guardas de las murallas.8 Yo os conjuro, oh hijas de Jerusaléna,si encontráis a mi amado,¿qué le habéis de decir?Que estoy enferma de amorb.
EL CORO:
9 ¿Qué clase de amado es tu amado1,oh la más hermosa de las mujeresa?¿Qué clase de amado es tu amado2,que así nos conjuras?
