1
I am the rose of Sharon, And the lily of the valleys.
2
The Beloved Like a lily among thorns, So is my love among the daughters.
3
The Shulamite Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods, So is my beloved among the sons. I sat down in his shade with great delight, And his fruit was sweet to my taste.
4
The Shulamite to the Daughters of Jerusalem He brought me to the banqueting house, And his banner over me was love.
5
Sustain me with cakes of raisins, Refresh me with apples, For I am lovesick.
6
His left hand is under my head, And his right hand embraces me.
7
I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.
8
The Shulamite The voice of my beloved! Behold, he comes Leaping upon the mountains, Skipping upon the hills.
9
My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag. Behold, he stands behind our wall; He is looking through the windows, Gazing through the lattice.

My beloved spoke, and said to me: "Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away.
