O why should I wander an alien from thee,
    Or cry in the desert for bread?
My foes will rejoice when my sorrows they see,
    And smile at the tears I have shed.
Ye daughters of Zion, declare have you seen,
    The star that on Israel shone:
Say if in your tents my beloved has been,
    And where with his flocks he is gone?
