1 Beautiful woman, where has your lover gone? Which way did your lover go? Tell us so that we can help you look for him.
2 My lover has gone down to his garden, where sweet-smelling spices grow. There, like a sheep, he will eat the grass, and he will enjoy the lilies.
3 I belong to my lover, and my lover belongs to me. He is the one feeding among the lilies.
4 My darling, you are as beautiful as Tirzah, as pleasant as Jerusalem, as awesome as the stars in the sky.
5 Don’t look at me! Your eyes excite me too much! And your hair is long and flowing, like little goats dancing down the slopes of Mount Gilead.
6 Your teeth are white like ewes just coming from their bath. They all give birth to twins. Not one of them has lost a baby.
7 Your cheeks under your veil are like slices of pomegranate.
