3 Like a scarlet strand, your lips,and your mouth—lovely!Like pomegranate halves, your cheeksbehind your veil.
4 Like a tower of David, your neck,built in courses,A thousand shields hanging upon it,all the armor of warriors.
5 Your breasts are like two fawns,twins of a gazellefeeding among the lilies.
6 Until the day grows cooland the shadows flee,I shall go to the mountain of myrrh,to the hill of frankincense.
7 You are beautiful in every way, my friend,there is no flaw in you!
8 With me from Lebanon, my bride!With me from Lebanon, come!Descend from the peak of Amana,from the peak of Senir and Hermon,From the lairs of lions,from the leopards’ heights.
9 You have ravished my heart, my sister, my bride;you have ravished my heart with one glance of your eyes,with one bead of your necklace.
