2 Like a lily among thorns,
So is my love among the daughters.

3 Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods,
So is my beloved among the sons.
I sat down in his shade with great delight,
And ^ahis fruit was sweet to my taste. ‡

5 Sustain me with cakes of raisins,
Refresh me with apples,
For I am lovesick.

6 ^aHis left hand is under my head,
And his right hand embraces me. ‡
