1 Where has your beloved gone,O most beautiful among women?Where has your beloved turned,that we may seek him with you?
2 My beloved has gone down to his gardento the beds of spices,to graze in the gardensand to gather lilies.
3 I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine;he grazes among the lilies.
4 You are beautiful as Tirzah, my love, lovely as Jerusalem, awesome as an army with banners.
5 Turn away your eyes from me,for they overwhelm me— Your hair is like a flock of goatsleaping down the slopes of Gilead.
