1. Oh that thou wert as my brother, That sucked the breasts of my mother! Should I find thee without, I would kiss thee; And they would not despise me.
2. I would lead thee, bring thee into my mother's house; Thou wouldest instruct me: I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine, Of the juice of my pomegranate.
3. His left hand would be under my head, And his right hand embrace me.
4. I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, ...Why should ye stir up, why awake my love, till he please?
