1I am like [MET] a flower/rose from the Sharon Plain,
2Among the other young women,
3And among the other men, you, the man who loves me, are like [MET] an apple/fruit tree that grows in the forest.
4You led me to the ◄banquet room/room where we could make love►,
5Refresh me and strengthen me with your lovemaking
6Put your left arm under my head
7You young women of Jerusalem,
8I hear the voice of the man who loves me.
9like [SIM] a deer or a gazelle.
10He spoke to me and said,
11Look, the ◄winter/cold season► is ended;
12flowers are blooming throughout the country/land.
13There are young/new figs on the fig trees,
14You are like [MET] a dove that is hiding far from me in an opening/crack in the rocky cliff.
15There are other men who are like [MET] little jackals/foxes that ruin vineyards;
16You who love me, I belong to you and you belong to me,
17You who love me, come and be like [SIM] a gazelle or like a young deer on the hills of Bether,
