FIRST ROOM (man)
The only one, the loved one, who has no equal
the most beautiful of all,
look at her
she is like a shining star
at the beginning of a good year.
She, who shines with perfection,
with a shining skin,
with eyes that are beautiful as they watch,
with lips that are sweet as they speak,
she for whom no speech is superfluous;
she, who has a long neck,
a shining breast
with hair of real lapislazuli,
whose arms surpass the splendor of gold,
whose fingers are as calyxes of lotus;
she, who has languid kidneys,
tight hips,
whose legs defend beauty,
whose step is full of nobility
when she puts her feet on land,
with her embrace she takes my heart.
For her all men’s necks
turn to look at he.
Each one she embraces is happy,
He feels the first among men.
When she exits her house,
it’s believed to see She who is the only one.
(she who is unique is an epithet by Hathor, ndt).

SECOND ROOM ( woman)
With his voice
my loved one troubles my heart,
and lets sickness take possession of me.
He lives near my mother’s house,
and yet I don’t know how to go towards him.
Could, for my fortune,
My mother be good?
Oh, I will go see her.
There, my heart refuses
To think about him,
Even when I’m taken from love for him.
There, he is senseless (the heart, ndt)
but I am like him.
He doesn’t know my desire to embrace him,
he doesn’t know he made me go to my mother.
Oh, loved one,
Maybe I’m destined to you by the Golden goddess of women!
(always Hathor, ndt)
Come to me,
may I see your beauty,
may father and mother be happy,
may all men together celebrate you,
oh loved one!
