Rise up, my love

Rise up

my love

my beautiful one

And come away

for behold

the winter is past

The rain is over and gone.

Flow’rs appear on the earth

The time of singing has come

And the voice of the turtle dove

Is heard in our land.

My beloved is mine

And I am His

He who feeds His flocks among the lilies.

’Til the day breaks

And the shadows flee away

Come my beloved

Come my beloved!

Rise up

my love

my beautiful one

And come away

for behold

the winter is past

The rain is over and gone.
