Translation:
Come, my Beloved, to meet the Bride; let us welcome
the Shabbat.
"Observe" and "Remember," the one and only G‑d
caused us to hear in a single utterance; the L-rd is One and
His Name is One, for renown, for glory and for praise.
Come, my Beloved...
Come, let us go to welcome the Shabbat, for it is
the source of blessing; from the beginning, from aforetime, it was chosen; last in creation, first in [G‑d's] thought.
Come, my Beloved...
Sanctuary of the King, royal city, arise, go forth
from the ruins; too long have you dwelt in the vale of tears; He will show you abounding mercy.
Come, my Beloved...
Shake the dust off yourself, arise, don your
glorious garments --- my people. Through the son of Yishai
of Bet Lechem, draw near to my soul and redeem it.
Come, my Beloved...
Arouse yourself, arouse yourself, for your light
has come; arise, shine. Awake, awake, utter a song; the
glory of the L-rd is revealed upon you.
Come, my Beloved...
Do not be ashamed nor confounded; why are you
downcast and why are you agitated? The afflicted of my
people will find refuge in you; the city will be rebuilt on its
former site.
Come, my Beloved...
Those who despoil you will be despoiled, and all who
would destroy you will be far away. Your G‑d will rejoice
over you as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride.
Come, my Beloved...
To the right and to the left you shall spread out, and
the L-rd you shall extol. And we shall rejoice and exult,
through the man who is a descendant of Peretz.
Come, my Beloved...
Come in peace, O crown of her Husband, both with
songs and gladness; among the faithful, the beloved people, come, O Bride, come, O Bride.
Come, my Beloved...
