Ego flos campi by Jens Klimek — Lyrics
Ego flos campi et lilium convallium.
Sicut lilium inter spinas sic amica mea inter filias.
Sicut malus inter ligna silvarum, sic dilectus meus inter filios.
Sub umbra illius quem desideraveram sedi, et fructus ejus dulcis gutturi meo.
Introduxit me Rex in cellam vinariam ordinavit in me charitatem.

About Ego flos campi
The words of Ego flos campi paint a vivid scene of love and longing, drawing from the Song of Solomon to describe a beloved as a flower in the field, a lily among thorns. The music for this evocative Latin text is written for SSAA voices. The composer Jens Klimek sets these words with a rich, devotional quality, suitable for sacred choral settings. The flowing lines and lush harmonies of this motet would provide a beautiful musical reflection on the text's themes of divine love and desire, making it a compelling choice for a choir seeking expressive sacred repertoire.
