My beloved is like a doe and like a young stag.
Lo, he stands beyond our wall, gazing through the windows, watching through the lattices.
Lo, my beloved speaks to me:
Groom to Bride: Rise up, quickly, my love, my dove, my shapely one, and advance.
For winter has now past; the rain has decreased and gone away.
The flowers have appeared in our land; the time for pruning has arrived. The voice of the turtledove has been heard in our land.
The fig tree has brought forth its green figs; the flowering vines bestow their odor. Rise up, my love, my brilliant one, and advance.
