[1]Behold, thou art fairH3303, my loveH7474; behold, thou art fairH3303; thou hast doves'H3123 eyesH5869 withinH1157 thy locksH6777: thy hairH8181 is as a flockH5739 of goatsH5795, that appearH1570 from mountH2022 GileadH1568.
[2]Thy teethH8127 are like a flockH5739 of sheep that are even shornH7094[H8803], which came upH5927[H8804] from the washingH7367; whereof every one bear twinsH8382[H8688], and none is barren among themH7909.
[3]Thy lipsH8193 are like a threadH2339 of scarletH8144, and thy speechH4057 is comelyH5000: thy templesH7541 are like a pieceH6400 of a pomegranateH7416 withinH1157 thy locksH6777.
[4]Thy neckH6677 is like the towerH4026 of DavidH1732 buildedH1129[H8803] for an armouryH8530, whereon there hangH8518[H8803] a thousandH505 bucklersH4043, all shieldsH7982 of mighty menH1368.
[5]Thy twoH8147 breastsH7699 are like twoH8147 youngH6082 roesH6646 that are twinsH8380, which feedH7462[H8802] among the liliesH7799.
[6]Until the dayH3117 breakH6315[H8799], and the shadowsH6752 flee awayH5127[H8804], I will getH3212[H8799] me to the mountainH2022 of myrrhH4753, and to the hillH1389 of frankincenseH3828.
[7]Thou art all fairH3303, my loveH7474; there is no spot in theeH3971.
[8]ComeH935[H8799] with me from LebanonH3844, my spouseH3618, with me from LebanonH3844: lookH7789[H8799] from the topH7218 of AmanaH549, from the topH7218 of ShenirH8149 and HermonH2768, from the lions'H738 densH4585, from the mountainsH2042 of the leopardsH5246.
[9]Thou hast ravished my heartH3823[H8765], my sisterH269, my spouseH3618; thou hast ravished my heartH3823[H8765] with oneH259 of thine eyesH5869, with oneH259 chainH6060 of thy neckH6677.
[10]How fairH3302[H8804] is thy loveH1730, my sisterH269, my spouseH3618! how much betterH2895[H8804] is thy loveH1730 than wineH3196! and the smellH7381 of thine ointmentsH8081 than all spicesH1314!
[11]Thy lipsH8193, O my spouseH3618, dropH5197[H8799] as the honeycombH5317: honeyH1706 and milkH2461 are under thy tongueH3956; and the smellH7381 of thy garmentsH8008 is like the smellH7381 of LebanonH3844.
[12]A gardenH1588 inclosedH5274[H8803] is my sisterH269, my spouseH3618; a springH1530 shut upH5274[H8803], a fountainH4599 sealedH2856.[H8803]
[13]Thy plantsH7973 are an orchardH6508 of pomegranatesH7416, with pleasantH4022 fruitsH6529; camphireH3724, with spikenardH5373,
[14]SpikenardH5373 and saffronH3750; calamusH7070 and cinnamonH7076, with all treesH6086 of frankincenseH3828; myrrhH4753 and aloesH174, with all the chiefH7218 spicesH1314:
[15]A fountainH4599 of gardensH1588, a wellH875 of livingH2416 watersH4325, and streamsH5140[H8802] from LebanonH3844.
[16]AwakeH5782[H8798], O north windH6828; and comeH935[H8798], thou southH8486; blowH6315[H8685] upon my gardenH1588, that the spicesH1314 thereof may flow outH5140[H8799]. Let my belovedH1730 comeH935[H8799] into his gardenH1588, and eatH398[H8799] his pleasantH4022 fruitsH6529.
