4He has 1brought me to his 2banquet hall, And his 3banner over me is love.5Sustain me with 4raisin cakes, Refresh me with 5 6apples, Because 7I am lovesick.6Let 8his left hand be under my head And 9his right hand 10embrace me.”

7“11I 12adjure you, O 13daughters of Jerusalem, By the 14gazelles or by the 15hinds of the field, 16That you do not arouse or awaken my love Until 17she pleases.”
