The Bridegroom

1HowH2005 beautifulH3303 you are, my darlingH7474— howH2005 very beautifulH3303! Your eyesH5869 are like dovesH3123 behindH1157 your veilH6777. Your hairH8181 is like a flockH5739 of goatsH5795 streaming downH1570 MountH2022 GileadH1568.2Your teethH8127 are like a flockH5739 of newly shorn sheepH7094 coming upH5927 fromH4480 the washingH7367; eachH3605 has its twinH8382, and not oneH369 of them is lostH7909.3Your lipsH8193 are like a scarletH8144 ribbonH2339, and your mouthH4057 is lovelyH5000. Your browH7541 behindH1157 your veilH6777 is like a sliceH6400 of pomegranateH7416.4Your neckH6677 is like the towerH4026 of DavidH1732, builtH1129 with rows of stonesH8530; on itH5921 hangH8518 a thousandH505 shieldsH4043, all of themH3605 shieldsH7982 of warriorsH1368.5Your breastsH7699H8147 are like twoH8147 fawnsH6082, twinsH8380 of a gazelleH6646 grazingH7462 among the liliesH7799.

6BeforeH5704 the dayH3117 breaksH6315 and the shadowsH6752 fleeH5127,I will make my wayH1980toH413 the mountainH2022 of myrrhH4753H413and to the hillH1389 of frankincenseH3828.7You are altogetherH3605 beautifulH3303, my darlingH7474;in you there is noH369 flawH3971.
8ComeH935 with meH854 from LebanonH3844, my brideH3618,come with meH854 from LebanonH3844!DescendH77881 from the peakH7218 of AmanaH549,from the summitsH7218 of SenirH8149 and HermonH2768,from the densH4585 of the lionsH738,from the mountainsH2042 of the leopardsH5246.9You have captured my heartH3823,my sisterH269, my brideH3618;you have stolen my heartH3823 with oneH259 glance of your eyesH5869,with oneH259 jewelH6060 of your neckH6677.10HowH4100 delightfulH3302 is your loveH1730,my sisterH269, my brideH3618!Your loveH1730 is muchH4100 betterH2895 than wineH3196,and the fragranceH7381 of your perfumeH8081 than allH3605 spicesH1314.11Your lipsH8193, my brideH3618,dripH5197 sweetness like the honeycombH5317;honeyH1706 and milkH2461 are underH8478 your tongueH3956,and the fragranceH7381 of your garmentsH8008is like the aromaH7381 of LebanonH3844.
12My sisterH269, my brideH3618, you are a gardenH1588 locked upH5274,a springH1530 enclosedH5274, a fountainH4599 sealedH2856.13Your branchesH7973 are an orchardH6508 of pomegranatesH7416withH5973 the choicestH4022 of fruitsH6529, with hennaH3724 and nardH5373,14with nardH5373 and saffronH3750, with calamusH7070 and cinnamonH7076,withH5973 every kindH3605 of frankincenseH3828 treeH6086,with myrrhH4753 and aloesH174,withH5973 allH3605 the finestH7218 spicesH1314.

The Bride

15You are a gardenH1588 springH4599, a wellH875 of freshH2416 waterH43252 flowing downH5140 fromH4480 LebanonH3844.

16AwakeH5782, O north windH6828,and comeH935, O south windH8486.Breathe onH6315 my gardenH1588and spread the fragranceH5140 of its spicesH1314.Let my belovedH1730 comeH935 into his gardenH1588and tasteH398 its choicestH4022 fruitsH6529.
