I will get up now!
    I will go around the city.
In the streets and squares,
    I will look for the man I love.

I looked for him,
    but I could not find him.
The guards patrolling the city found me.
    I asked them, “Have you seen the man I love?”

    when I found the man I love!
I held him and would not let him go,
    while I took him to my mother’s house,
    to the room of one who bore[a] me.
