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

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.

12 My sister, my[a] bride, is a locked garden
    a locked rock garden, a sealed up spring.
13 Your shoots are an orchard[b] of pomegranates,
    with choice fruit, henna with nard,
14 nard and saffron,
    calamus and cinnamon,
with all the trees of frankincense,
    along with myrrh and aloes, and all the finest spices.[c]
15 You are a garden spring,
    a well of fresh water,
        streams flowing from Lebanon.

The Loved One

16 Awake, north wind, and come, south wind.
    Make my garden breathe out,
        let its fragrance[d] flow.
Let my beloved come into his garden,
    and let him eat its choicest fruits.

The Lover

I’ve come into my garden, my sister, my[e] bride;
I’ve gathered my myrrh with my spices.
I’ve eaten my honeycomb with my honey.
I’ve drunk my wine with my milk.

Eat, friends!
    Drink and become drunk with love.
