I am the rose of Sharon,

and the shoshan (lily) of the valleys.

As the shoshan (lily) among thorns,

so is my love among the banot.Isa 53:2; Jer 33:15

As the tapuach (apple tree) among the trees of the wood,

so is dodi (my beloved) among the banim.

Betzilloh (in his shade, shadow) chimmadti (I desire ),(a)2:3 See Song 5:16

and his p'ri (fruit) is sweet to my taste.Psa 91:1; Rev 2:7; Rev 22:2

He brought me to the Bais HaYayin,

and his degel (standard, banner, flag) over me is ahavah.Psa 36:9

Sustain me with cakes of raisins,

comfort me with apples:

ki cholat ahavah ani (for I am faint with ahavah, lovesick).

His left hand is under my rosh,

and his right hand doth embrace me.Sng 8:3

I charge you, O ye banot Yerushalayim,

by the gazelles, and by the deer of the sadeh,

that ye arouse nor awake HaAhavah

till it pleases.(b)2:7 i.e., until its own time — see 3:5; 8:4Sng 3:5; Sng 8:4

Kol dodi (the voice of my beloved)!

Hinei, he cometh leaping upon the harim,

bounding over the hills.Jhn 10:19

Dodi (my beloved) is like a gazelle

or a young deer;

hinei, he standeth behind our Kotel (Wall);

he looketh forth at the chalonot (windows),

peering through the lattices.(c)2:9 Rv 3:20

Dodi (my beloved) spoke,

and said unto me:

Rise up, my love, my fair one,

and come away.

For, hinei, the winter is past,

the geshem (rain) is over and gone;

The flowers appear on ha'aretz;

the time of zemer (song, singing of birds) has come;

and the voice of the turtledove is heard in Artzeinu (our Land);

The te'enah (fig tree) putteth forth her early figs,

and the vines with the tender grape give forth fragrance.

Arise, my love, my fair one,

and come away.Luk 21:30

O my yonah (dove), that art in the clefts of the rock,

in the seter (secret place) of the cliff,

let me see thy countenance,

let me hear thy voice;

for sweet is thy voice,

and thy countenance is lovely.Sng 1:15; Sng 6:9; Sng 8:13; Mat 10:16

Catch the shu'alim (foxes),

the shu'alim ketanim (little foxes),

that spoil the kramim (vines);

for krameinu (our [blooming] vines) have tender grapes.Ezk 13:4; Luk 13:32

Dodi (my beloved) is mine,

and I am his;

he feedeth among the lilies.Sng 6:2; Sng 7:11

Until HaYom (the day) break,

and the shadows flee away,

turn, dodi (my beloved),

and be thou like a gazelle

or a young deer

upon the hills of Beter.Sng 4:6
