Admiration by the Bridegroom

1HowH4100 beautifulH3302 are your sandaledH5275 feetH6471, O daughterH1323 of the princeH5081! The curvesH2542 of your thighsH3409 are likeH3644 jewelsH2481, the handiworkH4639 H3027 of a masterH542.2Your navelH8326 is a roundedH5469 gobletH101; it neverH408 lacksH2637 blended wineH4197. Your waistH990 is a moundH6194 of wheatH2406 encircledH5473 by the liliesH7799.3Your breastsH7699 H8147 are like twoH8147 fawnsH6082, twinsH8380 of a gazelleH6646.4Your neckH6677 is like a towerH4026 made of ivoryH8127; your eyesH5869 are like the poolsH1295 of HeshbonH2809 byH5921 the gateH8179 of Bath-rabbimH1337; your noseH639 is like the towerH4026 of LebanonH3844, facing towardH6822 H6440 DamascusH1834.5Your headH7218 crowns youH5921 like Mount CarmelH3760, the hairH1803 of your headH7218 like purpleH713 threads; the kingH4428 is capturedH631 in your tressesH7298.

6HowH4100 fairH3302 andH4100 pleasantH5276 you are,O loveH160, with your delightsH8588!7 Your statureH6967 is likeH1819 a palm treeH8558;your breastsH7699 are clusters of fruitH811.8I saidH559, “I will climbH5927 the palm treeH8558;I will take holdH270 of its fruitH5577.”May your breastsH7699 beH1961 H4994 like clustersH811 of the vineH1612,the fragranceH7381 of your breathH639 like applesH8598,

9and your mouthH2441 1 like the finestH2896 wineH3196.

May it flowH1980 smoothlyH4339 to my belovedH1730,gliding gently overH1680 lipsH8193 and teethH3463.2

10IH589 belong to my belovedH1730,and his desireH8669 is for meH5921.11ComeH1980, my belovedH1730,let us goH3318 to the countrysideH7704;let us spend the nightH3885 among the wildflowersH3723.3

12Let us go earlyH7925 to the vineyardsH3754to seeH7200 ifH518 the vineH1612 has buddedH6524,if the blossomH5563 H5132 has openedH6605,if the pomegranates are in bloomH7416—thereH8033 I will giveH5414 youH853 my loveH1730.

13The mandrakesH1736 send forthH5414 a fragranceH7381,and atH5921 our doorH6607 is everyH3605 delicacyH4022,newH2319 asH1571 well as oldH3465,that I have treasured upH6845 for you, my belovedH1730.
