8. The voice of my beloved!Behold, he comes,leaping over the mountains,bounding over the hills.
9. My beloved is like a gazelleor a young stag.Behold, there he standsbehind our wall,gazing through the windows,looking through the lattice.
10. My beloved speaks and says to me: “Arise, my love, my beautiful one,and come away,
11. for behold, the winter is past; the rain is over and gone.
12. The flowers appear on the earth,the time of singing has come,and the voice of the turtledoveis heard in our land.
13. The fig tree ripens its figs,and the vines are in blossom;they give forth fragrance. Arise, my love, my beautiful one,and come away.
14. O my dove, in the clefts of the rock,in the crannies of the cliff,let me see your face,let me hear your voice,for your voice is sweet,and your face is lovely.
