Song of Solomon 7:11-13

New Century Version

¹¹ Come, my lover,
    let’s go out into the country
    and spend the night in the fields.
¹² Let’s go early to the vineyards
    and see if the buds are on the vines.
Let’s see if the blossoms have already opened
    and 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.
