Song of Songs 2:1-7

1I am the rose of Sharon, And the lily of the valleys.

2Like a lily among thorns, So is my love among the daughters.

3Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods, So is my beloved among the sons. I sat down in his shade with great delight, And his fruit was sweet to my taste.

4He brought me to the banqueting house, And his banner over me was love.

5Sustain me with cakes of raisins, Refresh me with apples, For I am lovesick.

6His left hand is under my head, And his right hand embraces me.

7I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.
