1 I have entered my garden,my sweetheart, my bride.I am gathering my spices and myrrh;I am eating my honey and honeycomb;I am drinking my wine and milk.Eat, lovers, and drinkuntil you are drunk with love!
2 While I slept, my heart was awake.I dreamt my lover knocked at the door.Let me come in, my darling,my sweetheart, my dove.My head is wet with dew,and my hair is damp from the mist.
3 I have already undressed;why should I get dressed again?I have washed my feet;why should I get them dirty again?
4 My lover put his hand to the door,and I was thrilled that he was near.
