Naomi

Slow to speech and slow of tongue,
I am very glad in my heart to meet you;
For your love is as white as the snow.
Naomi, your romance is like the blue sea;
And i will always take you by the tail.

Of silver, of gold and clothing;
You are very lovely and wonderful!
Oh riders of white she-donkeys,
Listen to the words of my poem;
And drink curdled milk and sleep for my lover,
For Naomi is her name on this sweet love-zone.
