6:1 [the chorus is singing here…] Where has your lover gone, most beautiful of women? Which way did your lover turn, that we may look for him with you?

6:2 My lover has gone down to his garden [to her (his lover), in order to make love to her], to the beds of spices [a place of pleasure], to browse in the gardens and to gather lilies [refers to the woman].

6:3 I am my lover’s and my lover is mine [indicates that these lovers were committed to one another]; he browses among the lilies [the female acknowledged that her lover was comfortable in her presence and in their home].
