My lover spoke and said to me,
       "Arise, my darling,
       my beautiful one, and come with me.

See! The winter is past;
       the rains are over and gone.

Flowers appear on the earth;
       the season of singing has come,
       the cooing of doves
       is heard in our land.

 The fig tree forms its early fruit;
       the blossoming vines spread their fragrance.
       Arise, come, my darling;
       my beautiful one, come with me."
