1 Bride: I am a flower of the open field and a lily of the steep valleys.
2 Groom: Like a lily among the thorns, so is my loved one among the daughters.
3 Bride to Chorus: Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat beneath the shadow of the one whom I desired, and his fruit was sweet to my palate.
4 He brought me into the storeroom of wine. He set charity in order within me.
5 Prop me up with flowers. Close me in with apples. For I languish through love.
