Song of Songs 4:1-7

1My dear friend, how beautiful you are! Yes, you are very beautiful! Your eyes behind your veil are like doves. Your hair is like a group of goats that are coming down from Mount Gilead.

2Your teeth are very white like a group of sheep. They are like sheep after someone has cut off their dirty wool and they are coming from the pool of water. Each tooth is one of a pair. Not one of them is alone.

3Your lips are like bright red strings. Your mouth is lovely. The sides of your face are beautiful, like the halves of a pomegranate. I see them through your veil.

4Your neck is like the great tower of King David. It is round and strong. Your necklace is like the shields of 1,000 brave soldiers that hang from the stones of the tower.

5Your breasts are perfect, like two young gazelles that are twins. They feed themselves among the lilies.

6I will go to the mountain of myrrh and the hill of frankincense. I will stay among them until the dawn comes and the shadows go away.

7You are completely beautiful, my dear friend. Your body is perfect in every way.
