            • 2. I would lead you and bring you to my mother's house--she who has taught me. I would give you spiced wine to drink, the nectar of my pomegranates.
                • 3. His left arm is under my head and his right arm embraces me.
                    • 4. Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.
                        • 5. Who is this coming up from the desert leaning on her lover? Under the apple tree I roused you; there your mother conceived you, there she who was in labor gave you birth.
                            • 6. Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame.
                                • 7. Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away. If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned.
                                    • 8. We have a young sister, and her breasts are not yet grown. What shall we do for our sister for the day she is spoken for?
                                        • 9. If she is a wall, we will build towers of silver on her. If she is a door, we will enclose her with panels of cedar.

                                                • 11. Solomon had a vineyard in Baal Hamon; he let out his vineyard to tenants. Each was to bring for its fruit a thousand shekels of silver.
                                                    • 12. But my own vineyard is mine to give; the thousand shekels are for you, O Solomon, and two hundred are for those who tend its fruit.
                                                        • 13. You who dwell in the gardens with friends in attendance, let me hear your voice!
