Song of Songs 2

2[Young Woman] I am the spring crocus blooming on the Sharon Plain, the lily of the valley.H2261H8289H7799H6010 2[Young Man] Like a lily among thistles is my darling among young women.H7799H2336H7474H1323 3[Young Woman] Like the finest apple tree in the orchard is my lover among other young men. I sit in his delightful shade and taste his delicious fruit.H8598H6086H3293H1730H1121H3427H6738H2530H6529H4966H2441 4He escorts me to the banquet hall; it’s obvious how much he loves me.H935H3196H1004H1714H160 5Strengthen me with raisin cakes, refresh me with apples, for I am weak with love.H5564H809H7502H8598H2470H160 6His left arm is under my head, and his right arm embraces me.H8040H7218H3225H2263 7Promise me, O women of Jerusalem, by the gazelles and wild deer, not to awaken love until the time is right.H7650H1323H3389H6643H176H355H7704H5782H5782H160H2654 8Ah, I hear my lover coming! He is leaping over the mountains, bounding over the hills.H6963H1730H935H1801H2022H7092H1389 9My lover is like a swift gazelle or a young stag. Look, there he is behind the wall, looking through the window, peering into the room.H1730H1819H6643H6082H354H5975H310H3796H7688H2474H6692H2762 10My lover said to me, “Rise up, my darling! Come away with me, my fair one!H1730H6030H559H6965H7474H3303H3212 11Look, the winter is past, and the rains are over and gone.H5638H5674H1653H2498H1980 12The flowers are springing up, the season of singing birds has come, and the cooing of turtledoves fills the air.H5339H7200H776H6256H2158H5060H6963H8449H8085H776 13The fig trees are forming young fruit, and the fragrant grapevines are blossoming. Rise up, my darling! Come away with me, my fair one!”H8384H2590H6291H1612H5563H5414H7381H6965H7474H3303H3212 14[Young Man] My dove is hiding behind the rocks, behind an outcrop on the cliff. Let me see your face; let me hear your voice. For your voice is pleasant, and your face is lovely. Young Women of JerusalemH3123H2288H5553H5643H4095H7200H4758H8085H6963H6156H6963H4758H5000 15Catch all the foxes, those little foxes, before they ruin the vineyard of love, for the grapevines are blossoming!H270H7776H6996H7776H2254H3754H3754H5563 16[Young Woman] My lover is mine, and I am his. He browses among the lilies.H1730H7462H7799 17Before the dawn breezes blow and the night shadows flee, return to me, my love, like a gazelle or a young stag on the rugged mountains.H3117H6315H6752H5127H5437H1730H1819H6643H6082H354H2022H1336
