Song of Songs 2:11-13

11Look! The winter time has finished. The heavy rains have stopped.

12Flowers are appearing everywhere. It is now the season to sing happy songs. We can hear the voices of doves around us.

13New fruit is growing on the fig trees. There are flowers on the vines, and their sweet smell is in the air. I love you, my beautiful friend. Please get up now and come with me!’
