The Song of Songs 2

2 I am a flower of Sharon,

a lily of the valleys.

2 Like a lily among thorns,

so is my darling among the daughters.

3 Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest,

so is my beloved among the sons.

In his shadow I took delight, and I sat,

and his fruit is sweet to my palate.

4 He brought me to the house of wine

and his banner over me is love.

5 Sustain me with raisin cakes;

refresh me with apples,

for sick with love am I!

6 His left hand is under my head,

and his right hand embraces me.

7 I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem,

by the female gazelles or the does of the field,

do not awaken nor stir love

until it desires.

8 The voice of my beloved! Behold, this one is coming,

leaping over the mountains,

jumping over the hills.

9 My beloved is resembling a gazelle or a young stag.

Behold, this one is standing behind our wall,

gazing through the windows,

looking through the lattices.

10 My beloved answered and said to me,

“Get up, my darling,

my beauty, and come,

11 for, behold, the winter has gone;

the rain has passed;

it went away.

12 The blossoms have appeared in the land;

the time of the song has arrived.

and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.

13 The fig tree ripens its green figs

and the vines are in blossom;

they give off a smell.

Get up, come, my darling, my beauty, and come.

14 My dove, in the clefts of the rock,

in the hiding places of the cliff,

show me your appearance,

make me hear your voice,

for your voice is sweet, and your appearance is lovely.

15 Catch the foxes for us, the little foxes

that destroy the vineyards,

and our vineyards are in blossom.”

16 My beloved belongs to me and I belong to him,

the man grazing among the lilies.

17 Until the day breathes and the shadows flee,

turn; resemble, my beloved, a gazelle or a young stag

on the mountains of Bether.
