8 I said, “I will go up to the palm tree,
I will take hold of its branches.”
Let now your breasts be like clusters of the vine,
The fragrance of your1 breath like apples,
I will take hold of its branches.”
Let now your breasts be like clusters of the vine,
The fragrance of your1 breath like apples,
9 And the roof of your mouth like the best wine.
The wine goes down smoothly for my beloved,
1Moving gently the2 lips of sleepers.
The wine goes down smoothly for my beloved,
1Moving gently the2 lips of sleepers.
The Shulamite
12 Let us get up early to the vineyards;
Let us asee if the vine has budded,
Whether the grape blossoms are open,
And the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
Let us asee if the vine has budded,
Whether the grape blossoms are open,
And the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
13 The amandrakes give off a fragrance,
And at our gates bare pleasant fruits,
All manner, new and old,
Which I have laid up for you, my beloved.
And at our gates bare pleasant fruits,
All manner, new and old,
Which I have laid up for you, my beloved.
