7. You are tall like a palm tree,and your breasts are like its bunches of fruit.
8. I said, “I will climb up the palm treeand take hold of its fruit.”Let your breasts be like bunches of grapes,the smell of your breath like apples,
9. and your mouth like the best wine.Let this wine go down sweetly for my lover;may it flow gently past the lips and teeth.
10. I belong to my lover,and he desires only me.
11. Come, my lover,let’s go out into the countryand spend the night in the fields.
12. Let’s go early to the vineyardsand see if the buds are on the vines.Let’s see if the blossoms have already openedand if the pomegranates have bloomed.There I will give you my love.
13. The mandrake flowers give their sweet smell,and all the best fruits are at our gates.I have saved them for you, my lover,the old delights and the new.
