1. He called me, so I followed his lead
Until I saw the gazelle at the gate

2. Oh, her beauty when she turned from me
Veiled from me in her cloak

3. Glory to her standing full of yearning
That poured into my heart in torrents

4. If I seek her, voices call from her
A father who is no permissive fool

5. He settled her in a lofty palace
Guarded by doors and veils
