Text

כְּשֽׁוֹשַׁנָּה֙ בֵּ֣ין הַחוֹחִ֔ים כֵּ֥ן רַעְיָתִ֖י בֵּ֥ין הַבָּנֽוֹת׃ (ג) כְּתַפּ֙וּחַ֙ בַּעֲצֵ֣י הַיַּ֔עַר כֵּ֥ן דּוֹדִ֖י בֵּ֣ין הַבָּנִ֑ים בְּצִלּוֹ֙ חִמַּ֣דְתִּי וְיָשַׁ֔בְתִּי וּפִרְי֖וֹ מָת֥וֹק לְחִכִּֽי׃

(2) Like a lily among thorns, So is my darling among the maidens.
(3) Like an apple tree among trees of the forest, So is my beloved among the youths. I delight to sit in his shade, and his fruit is sweet to my mouth.

Kavvanot

In the Nava Tehila method, kavvanot — intentions for inner engagement with the words of prayer — are developed through close attention to the language of the psalms: Pshat, Midrash, and Kabbalistic and Hasidic illumination.
