The Groom

(A)Swear to me, you (B)daughters of Jerusalem,
By the (C)gazelles or by the (D)does of the field,
(E)That you will not disturb or awaken my love
Until she pleases.”

The Bride

“Listen! My beloved!
Behold, he is coming,
Leaping (F)on the mountains,
Jumping on the hills!
My beloved is like a (G)gazelle or a (H)young [a]stag.
Behold, he is standing behind our wall,
He is looking through the windows,
He is peering (I)through the lattice.
