11 Come, my love,
let’s go to the field;
let’s spend the night among the henna blossoms.[a]
12 Let’s go early to the vineyards;
let’s see if the vine has budded,
if the blossom has opened,
if the pomegranates are in bloom.(A)
There I will give you my love.
13 The mandrakes(B) give off a fragrance,
and at our doors is every delicacy—
new as well as old.
I have treasured them up for you, my love.

  1. Song of Solomon 7:11 Or the villages

11 Come, my love, let us go out to the fields
    and spend the night among the wildflowers.[a]
12 Let us get up early and go to the vineyards
    to see if the grapevines have budded,
if the blossoms have opened,
    and if the pomegranates have bloomed.
    There I will give you my love.
13 There the mandrakes give off their fragrance,
    and the finest fruits are at our door,
new delights as well as old,
    which I have saved for you, my lover.
