9. My love is like a gazelleor a young stag. Look, he is standing behind our wall,gazing through the windows,peering through the lattice.
10. My love calls to me:Arise, my darling.Come away, my beautiful one.
11. For now the winter is past;the rain has ended and gone away.
12. The blossoms appear in the countryside.The time of singing has come,and the turtledove’s cooing is heard in our land.
