1I am a flower of the plain, a lily of the valleys.
2As a lily among thorns, so is my companion among the daughters.
3As the apple among the trees of the wood, so is my kinsman among the sons. I desired his shadow, and sat down, and his fruit was sweet in my throat.
4Bring me into the wine house; set love before me.
5Strengthen me with perfumes, stay me with apples: for I am wounded with love.
6His left hand shall be under my head, and his right hand shall embrace me.
7I have charged you, you° daughters of Jerusalem, by the powers and by the virtues of the field, that you° do not rouse or wake my love, until he please.
8The voice of my kinsman! behold, he comes leaping over the mountains, bounding over the hills.
