Solomon's Song
Hymnal: The Psalms Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithfully translated into English Metre #SII (1773) Hymnal Title: The Psalms Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithfully translated into English Metre First Line: I Sharon's rose, and lilly am Lyrics: [Christ]
1 I Sharon's rose and lilly am
which in the valley grows;
2 As lillies among thorns, my Love
among the daughters shows.
[The Church]
3 As th' apple-tree among the woods,
which fruit most beauteous bears;
So my most dear beloved one
among the sons appears:
I with great joy sat in his shade;
his fruit most sweet did prove:
4 He brought me to his banquet-house;
his banner o'er me love.
5 With flaggons stay, with apples cheer,
for faint with love am I.
6 Under my head his left hand doth,
his right above me lie.
7 O daughters of Jerusalem
wake not my Love, nor raise;
By roes and hinds of all the fields
I charge you till He please.
8 O 'tis the voice of my Belov'd!
upon the mountain's He,
As roes or fawns bound o'er the hills,
so leaping comes, I see!
9 But now behind our wall He stands,
and thro' the window views?
I see Him thro' the Latices;
how lovelily He shews!
10 The my Beloved call'd to me,
to me did kindly say;
[Christ]
'Arise my Love, my fairest one,
'make haste and come away!
11 'For lo the winter now is past,
' the rain entirely gone;
12 'The flow'rs appear all o'er the earth,
'the singing birds come on!
'The turtle's soft and melting voice
'thro' all the land I hear:
13 'The fig-tree, see, puts forth her figs;
'The young and green appear!
'The vines with their young tender grapes
'around perfume the air:
'Arise my Love, my fairest one;
'come, stay no longer there!'
14 O Thou my dove, in clefts of rocks,
in secret stairs! let me
Hear thy sweet voice! thy comely face
O let me gladly see!
[The Church]
15 The foxes take for us away,
the little foxes# there,
Who spoil the vines; and then the vines
their tender grapes will bear.
16 My most beloved one is mine,
and I am wholly his;
Among the lillies of the vales
His pleasant feeding is.
17 Till the day break, and shades fly hence,
turn my Belov'd to me;
And like a roe or fawn upon
the Bether mountains be! Scripture: Song of Solomon 2 Languages: English

Hymnal: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament #306 (1742) Hymnal Title: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament First Line: I Sharon's rose and lily am Lyrics: 1 I Sharon's rose and lilly am
That grows the vales along.
2 As lilly among thorns, my love
The daughters is among.
3 As is the apple tree among
Trees in the wood that grow,
My well beloved one among
The sons is even so.
I with great joy sat in his shade,
His fruit I sweet did taste.
4 He brought me to his house of wine,
His love flag o'er me cast.
5 With flaggons stay, with apples me
Chear up, for love-sick I
6 Under my head his left hand doth,
His right above me ly.
7 O daughters of Jerusalem
My love wake not nor raise;
By roes and hinds of fields I you
Do charge, until he please
8 The voice of my beloved one
Upon the mountain's; lo
He cometh leaping on the hills,
He skipping comes also.
9 As roes or fawns of hinds my love
Behold he stands and views
Behind our wall, the windows through?
Himself through lattess shews.
10 My well-beloved he did speak,
And unto me did say,
Arise, my love, my comely one,
Come thou also away.
11 For lo the winter passed is,
The rain is over gone.
12 The flow'rs appear upon the earth
Birds singing time is come:
And of the turtle dove the voice
Is heard our land within
13 The fig-tree causeth forth to spring
Her figs that yet are green.
The vines also with tender grape
Do give good smell, I say
Arise, my love, my comely one,
And do thou come away.
14 My dove in clefts of rocks close stairs,
Thy voice O let me hear.
And see thy face; for sweet's thy voice,
Thy face is also fair.
15 Take up the foxes, take for us
The little foxes here.
That spoil the vines; because our vines,
Most tender grapes do bear.
16 My well beloved one is mine,
And I am also his;
Among the lilly flow'rs also
His pleasant feeding is.
17 Until day-break and shades fly hence
Turn my beloved one,
And like a roe or young hart be
The Bether mountains on.
