Who is that coming up from the wilderness,
learning upon her beloved?
Under the apple tree I awakened you
There your mother was in labor with you
there she who bore you was in labor.
Set me as seal upon your heart.
as a seal upon your arm,
for love is strong as death,
passion fierce as the grave,
Its flashes are flashes of fire,
a raging flame,
Many waters cannot quench love,
neither can floods drown it.
