I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys. Lover

The voice of my beloved! Behold, he comes, leaping on the mountains, skipping on the hills.

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.

Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes that spoil the vineyards; for our vineyards are in blossom. Beloved

Until the day is cool, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be like a roe or a young hart on the mountains of Bether.
