Female lover
“I went down
To the nut orchard.
I looked at
The blossoms of the valley.
I wanted to see
Whether the vines had budded.
I wanted to see
Whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
Before I was aware,
My fancy set me
In a chariot
Beside my prince.”
Meanwhile the female lover was back in the garden, the nut orchard garden. She saw the blossoms of the valley and the budding vines. The pomegranates were in bloom. Suddenly, before she was aware of it, the prince in his chariot was there. Will we have a happy ending?
