What Song of Solomon 2:12 means
It paints the arrival of spring: flowers opening, birds singing, and the turtledove's call announcing that winter is finally over.
The Song of Solomon is a love poem in the Bible. In these lines one lover calls the other to come outside, because the cold and rainy season has ended and the world is coming back to life.
The returning song of the turtledove was a familiar sign that spring had arrived. The verse is an invitation, using the turn of the seasons as a picture of love waking up and life beginning again.
