Song of Songs 4:12-5:1
New International Version
12 You are a garden(A) locked up, my sister, my bride;(B)
you are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain.(C)
13 Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates(D)
with choice fruits,
with henna(E) and nard,
14 nard and saffron,
calamus and cinnamon,(F)
with every kind of incense tree,
with myrrh(G) and aloes(H)
and all the finest spices.(I)
15 You are[a] a garden(J) fountain,(K)
a well of flowing water
streaming down from Lebanon.
She
16 Awake, north wind,
and come, south wind!
Blow on my garden,(L)
that its fragrance(M) may spread everywhere.
Let my beloved(N) come into his garden
and taste its choice fruits.(O)
He
5 I have come into my garden,(P) my sister, my bride;(Q)
I have gathered my myrrh with my spice.
I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey;
I have drunk my wine and my milk.(R)
Friends
Eat, friends, and drink;
drink your fill of love.

Common English Bible
12 An enclosed garden is my sister, my bride;
an enclosed pool, a sealed spring.
13 Your limbs are an orchard of pomegranates
with all kinds of luscious fruit,
henna, and spices:
14 nard and saffron,
sweet cane and cinnamon,
with all scented woods,
myrrh, and aloes,
with the very choicest perfumes!
15 You are a garden spring, a well of fresh water,
streams from Lebanon.
16 Stir, north wind, and come, south wind!
Blow upon my garden;
let its perfumes flow!
[Woman]
Let my love come to his garden;
let him eat its luscious fruit!
[Man]
5 I have come to my garden, my sister, my bride!
I have gathered my myrrh and my spices.
I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey;
I have drunk my wine and my milk.
Eat, dear friends!
Drink and get drunk on love!
