# Song of Solomon 2

[1](#verse-1) I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.

[2](#verse-2) As a lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.

[3](#verse-3) As 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, his fruit was sweet to my taste.

[4](#verse-4) He brought me to the banquet hall. His banner over me is love.

[5](#verse-5) Strengthen me with raisins, refresh me with apples; for I am faint with love.

[6](#verse-6) His left hand is under my head. His right hand embraces me.

[7](#verse-7) I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, or by the hinds of the field, that you not stir up, nor awaken love, until it so desires.

[8](#verse-8) The voice of my beloved! Behold, he comes, leaping on the mountains, skipping on the hills.

[9](#verse-9) My beloved is like a roe or a young deer. Behold, he stands behind our wall! He looks in at the windows. He glances through the lattice.

[10](#verse-10) My beloved spoke, and said to me, “Rise up, my love, my beautiful one, and come away.

[11](#verse-11) For behold, the winter is past. The rain is over and gone.

[12](#verse-12) The flowers appear on the earth. The time of the singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.

[13](#verse-13) The fig tree ripens her green figs. The vines are in blossom. They give out their fragrance. Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come away.”

[14](#verse-14) My dove in the clefts of the rock, in the hiding places of the mountainside, let me see your face. Let me hear your voice; for your voice is sweet and your face is lovely.

[15](#verse-15) Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes that plunder the vineyards; for our vineyards are in blossom.

[16](#verse-16) My beloved is mine, and I am his. He browses among the lilies.

[17](#verse-17) Until the day is cool, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be like a roe or a young deer on the mountains of Bether.
