The Bride’s Admiration
The Bride
2I am a rose of Sharon,+a lily of the valley.The Bridegroom
2Like a lily among the thornsis my darling among the maidens.The Bride
3Like an apple tree among the trees of the forestis my beloved among the young men.I delight to sit in his shade,and his fruit is sweet to my taste.4He has brought me to the house of wine,+and his banner over me is love.5Sustain me with raisins;refresh me with apples,for I am faint with love.6His left hand is under my head,and his right arm embraces me.7O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure youby the gazelles and does of the field:Do not arouse or awaken loveuntil the time is right.8Listen! My beloved approaches.Look! Here he comes,leaping across the mountains,bounding over the hills.9My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag.Look, he stands behind our wall,gazing through the windows,peering through the lattice.10My beloved calls to me,“Arise, my darling.
Come away with me, my beautiful one.11For now the winter is past;the rain is over and gone.12The flowers have appeared in the countryside;the season of singing+has come,and the cooing of turtledovesis heard in our land.13The fig tree ripens its figs;the blossoming vines spread their fragrance.Arise, come away, my darling;come away with me, my beautiful one.”
The Bridegroom
14O my dove in the clefts of the rock,in the crevices of the cliff,let me see your face,let me hear your voice;for your voice is sweet,and your countenance is lovely.The Friends
15Catch for us the foxes—the little foxes that ruin the vineyards—for our vineyards are in bloom.
