10 My lover is healthy and tan,the best of ten thousand men.
11 His head is like the finest gold;his hair is wavy and black like a raven.
12 His eyes are like dovesby springs of water.They seem to be bathed in creamand are set like jewels.
13 His cheeks are like beds of spices;they smell like mounds of perfume.His lips are like liliesflowing with myrrh.
14 His hands are like gold hinges,filled with jewels.His body is like shiny ivorycovered with sapphires.
15 His legs are like large marble posts,standing on bases of fine gold.He is like a cedar of Lebanon,like the finest of the trees.
16 His mouth is sweet to kiss,and I desire him very much.Yes, daughters of Jerusalem,this is my loverand my friend.
