UPON MY BED
Upon my bed during the nights
I sought my beloved
I sought him, I sought him
And did not find him
I shall arise and roam
In the city, the markets and streets
I shall seek, I shall seek
The one my soul loves
I was discovered by the guards
Roaming the city
"The one whom my soul loves -
Have you seen, have you seen?"
I almost past them by -
Until I found -
The one who my soul loves
I held him and would not let him go
