Lyrics

[00:08.68] I am the rose of Sharon,
[00:11.60] and the lily of the valleys.
[00:13.45]
[00:15.01] As the lily among thorns,
[00:17.08] so is my love among the daughters.
[00:19.83]
[00:20.72] As the apple tree among the trees of the wood,
[00:23.97] so is my beloved among the sons.
[00:28.06] I sat down under his shadow with great delight,
[00:32.37] and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
[00:36.54]
[00:37.79] He brought me to the banqueting house,
[00:40.19] and his banner over me was love.
[00:43.72]
[00:44.98] Stay me with flagons,
[00:46.89] comfort me with apples:
[00:48.95] for I am sick of love.
[00:51.77]
[00:53.83] His left hand is under my head,
[00:57.00] and his right hand doth embrace me.
[00:59.70]
[01:01.25] I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem,
[01:04.82] by the roes, and by the hinds of the field,
[01:08.15] that ye stir not up, nor awake my love,
[01:12.98] till he please.
[01:14.63]
[01:16.49] The voice of my beloved!
[01:18.35] behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains,
[01:21.21] skipping upon the hills.
[01:22.67]
[01:23.17] My beloved is like a roe or a young hart:
[01:27.48] behold, he standeth behind our wall,
[01:31.00] he looketh forth at the windows,
[01:34.02] shewing himself through the lattice.
[01:36.68]
[01:38.34] My beloved spake, and said unto me,
[01:41.69] Rise up, my love,
[01:43.41] my fair one, and come away.
[01:46.33]
[01:47.42] For, lo, the winter is past,
[01:51.43] the rain is over and gone.
[01:53.70]
[01:54.94] The flowers appear on the earth;
[01:57.31] the time of the singing of birds is come,
[02:01.53] and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
[02:04.79]
[02:06.95] The fig tree putteth forth her green figs,
[02:10.47] and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell.
[02:15.91] Arise, my love,
[02:17.91] my fair one, and come away.
[02:20.58]
[02:22.24] O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock,
[02:25.91] in the secret places of the stairs,
[02:28.57] let me see thy countenance,
[02:31.83] let me hear thy voice;
[02:34.39] for sweet is thy voice,
[02:37.31] and thy countenance is comely.
[02:39.72]
[02:41.17] Take us the foxes,
[02:42.72] the little foxes,
[02:43.84] that spoil the vines:
[02:45.79] for our vines have tender grapes.
[02:48.86]
[02:50.16] My beloved is mine, and I am his:
[02:55.69] he feedeth among the lilies.
[02:57.80]
[02:59.40] Until the day break,
[03:01.28] and the shadows flee away,
[03:03.89] turn, my beloved,
[03:06.45] and be thou like a roe
[03:09.07] or a young hart
[03:10.93] upon the mountains of Bether.
[03:13.14]
