Lyrics: 

Audi filia, et vide, et inclina aurem tuam: quia concupivit Rex speciem tuam. V. Vultum tuum deprecabuntur omnes divites plebis: filiae regum in honore tuo. V. Adducentur Regi virgines post eam: proximae ejus afferentur tibi. V. Afferentur in laetitia, et exsultatione: adducentur in templum Regis.

Translated Lyrics: 

Hearken, O daughter, and see, incline thy ear: for the King hath greatly desired thy beauty. V. All the rich shall entreat thy countenance: the daughters of kings in thine honor. V. After her shall virgins be brought to the King: her neighbors shall be brought to thee. V. They shall be brought with gladness and rejoicing: they shall be brought into the temple of the King.
