She Speaks

My lover, among other men,
    you are an apple tree among the wild trees in the forest!

She Speaks to the Women

I enjoy sitting in my lover’s shadow;
    his fruit is so sweet to my taste.
My lover took me to the wine house;
    his intent toward me was love.
Strengthen me with raisins[a];
    refresh me with apples, because I am weak with love.[b]
