Song of Songs 3:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² I thought, ‘I will get up now and I will go into the city.
    I will look everywhere for my lover.
    I will look in all the streets.
    I will look in all the market places.’
So I looked for him,
    but I did not find him.
³ The city guards found me
    as they walked in the streets of the city.
I asked them,
    ‘Have you seen the man that I love?’
⁴ Just then, as I left them, I found my lover!
    I hugged him and I would not let him go.
I took him to my mother's house.
I took him into my mother's bedroom.
    That is where my life started, inside my mother's body.
