Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

The author does not say who is speaking in this verse so you should not indicate who you think is speaking in the text. However, if you are using section headers to indicate who is speaking, you can place a header above this section indicating that the woman is speaking.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
בְּרַ֣ח
make_haste
Here the word Flee means “come quickly.” If it would be helpful to your readers, you could include this information. Alternate translation: “Come quickly” or “Hurry”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
עַ֖ל הָרֵ֥י בְשָׂמִֽים
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in mountains spices
The phrase the mountains of spices has a double meaning. The literal meaning refers to mountains where spices grow. Here the woman is speaking of herself as if she is the mountains of spices and she wants the man she loves to come to her and enjoy her body. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly.
