Song of Solomon  


4 : 1 How beautiful you are, my darling! Oh, how beautiful! Your eyes behind your veil are doves. Your hair is like a flock of goats descending from Mount Gilead.
4 : 2 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep just shorn, coming up from the washing. Each has its twin; not one of them is alone.
4 : 3 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon; your mouth is lovely. Your temples behind your veil are like the halves of a pomegranate.
4 : 4 Your neck is like the tower of David, built with elegance ; on it hang a thousand shields, all of them shields of warriors.
4 : 5 Your two breasts are like two fawns, like twin fawns of a gazelle that browse among the lilies.
4 : 6 Until the day breaks and the shadows flee, I will go to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of incense.
4 : 7 All beautiful you are, my darling; there is no flaw in you.
4 : 8 Come with me from Lebanon, my bride, come with me from Lebanon. Descend from the crest of Amana, from the top of Senir, the summit of Hermon, from the lions` dens and the mountain haunts of the leopards.
4 : 9 You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride; you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace.
4 : 10 How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much more pleasing is your love than wine, and the fragrance of your perfume than any spice!
4 : 11 Your lips drop sweetness as the honeycomb, my bride; milk and honey are under your tongue. The fragrance of your garments is like that of Lebanon.
4 : 12 You are a garden locked up, my sister, my bride; you are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain.
4 : 13 Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates with choice fruits, with henna and nard,
4 : 14 nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon, with every kind of incense tree, with myrrh and aloes and all the finest spices.
4 : 15 You are a garden fountain, a well of flowing water streaming down from Lebanon.
4 : 16 Awake, north wind, and come, south wind! Blow on my garden, that its fragrance may spread abroad. Let my lover come into his garden and taste its choice fruits.
