Behold, thou art fair,
my love;
behold, thou art fair;
thou hast doves'
eyes
within
thy locks:
thy hair
is as a flock
of goats,
that appear
from mount
Gilead.

Thy teeth
are like a flock
of sheep that are even shorn,
which came up
from the washing;
whereof every one bear twins,
and none is barren
among them.
Thy lips
are like a thread
of scarlet,
and thy speech
is comely:
thy temples
are like a piece
of a pomegranate
within
thy locks.
Thy neck
is like the tower
of David
builded
for an armoury,
whereon there hang
a thousand
bucklers,
all shields
of mighty men.
Thy two
breasts
are like two
young
roes
that are twins,
which feed
among the lilies.
Until the day
break,
and the shadows
flee away,
I will get
me to the mountain
of myrrh,
and to the hill
of frankincense.
Thou art all fair,
my love;
there is no spot
in thee.
Come
with me from Lebanon,
my spouse,
with me from Lebanon:
look
from the top
of Amana,
from the top
of Shenir
and Hermon,
from the lions'
dens,
from the mountains
of the leopards.

Thou hast ravished my heart,
my sister,
my spouse;
thou hast ravished my heart
with one
of thine eyes,
with one
chain
of thy neck.
How fair
is thy love,
my sister,
my spouse!
how much better
is thy love
than wine!
and the smell
of thine ointments
than all spices!

Thy lips,
O my spouse,
drop
as the honeycomb:
honey
and milk
are under thy tongue;
and the smell
of thy garments
is like the smell
of Lebanon.
A garden
inclosed
is my sister,
my spouse;
a spring
shut up,
a fountain
sealed.
Thy plants
are an orchard
of pomegranates,
with pleasant
fruits;
camphire,
with spikenard,
Spikenard
and saffron;
calamus
and cinnamon,
with all trees
of frankincense;
myrrh
and aloes,
with all the chief
spices:
A fountain
of gardens,
a well
of living
waters,
and streams
from Lebanon.
Awake,
O north wind;
and come,
thou south;
blow
upon my garden,
that the spices
thereof may flow out.
Let my beloved
come
into his garden,
and eat
his pleasant
fruits.
