1I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.studyinterlinear
2As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.studyinterlinear
3As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.studyinterlinear
4He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.studyinterlinear
5Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.studyinterlinear
6His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me.studyinterlinear
7I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.studyinterlinear
8The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.studyinterlinear
9My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice.studyinterlinear
10My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.studyinterlinear
11For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;studyinterlinear
12The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;studyinterlinear
13The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.studyinterlinear
14O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.studyinterlinear
15Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.studyinterlinear
16My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies.studyinterlinear
17Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.studyinterlinear
