Songs:2

Seeker Overlay ON

* I am a rose of Sharon , A lily of the valleys . * As the lily among thorns , So is my love among the daughters . * As the apple –tree among the trees of the forest , So is my beloved among the sons . In his shadow I love to sit down , And his fruit is sweet to my taste . * He hath brought me to his banqueting –house , And his banner over me is love . Strengthen me with raisins , * Refresh me with apples ! For I am sick with love . * His left hand is under my head , And his right hand embraceth me ! * I charge you , O ye daughters of Jerusalem , By the gazelles , and by the hinds of the field , That ye stir not up , nor awake my love , till she please ! * The voice of my beloved ! Behold , he cometh , Leaping upon the mountains , Bounding upon the hills . * Like a gazelle is my beloved , Or a young hind . Behold , he standeth behind our wall ; He is looking through the windows ; He glanceth through the lattice . * My beloved speaketh , and saith to me , "Rise up , my love , my fair one , and come away ! * For , lo , the winter is past , The rain is over and gone ; * The flowers appear on the earth ; The time of the singing of birds is come , And the voice of the turtle is heard in our land ; * The fig –tree is spicing its green fruit ; The vines in blossom give forth fragrance . Arise , my love , my fair one , and come away ! * O my dove , that art in the recesses of the rock , In the hiding –places of the steep craggy mountain , Let me see thy face , Let me hear thy voice ! For sweet is thy voice , And thy face lovely ." * Take ye for us the foxes , The little foxes that spoil the vines ; For our vines are now in blossom . * My beloved is mine , and I am his ; He feedeth among the lilies . * When the day breathes , and the shadows flee away , Come again , my beloved , like a gazelle , or a young hind , Upon the craggy mountains .
