Song of Solomon 2:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

2 [She said] I am only a little rose or autumn crocus of the plain of Sharon, or a [humble] lily of the valleys [that grows in deep and difficult places].

² But Solomon replied, Like the lily among thorns, so are you, my love, among the daughters.

³ Like an apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved [shepherd] among the sons [cried the girl]! Under his shadow I delighted to sit, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
