Song of Songs 4:7-16

7You are altogether beautiful, my love; there is no flaw in you.

8Come with me from Lebanon, my bride; come with me from Lebanon. Depart from the peak of Amana, from the peak of Senir and Hermon, from the dens of lions, from the mountains of leopards.

9You have captivated my heart, my sister, my bride; you have captivated my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace.

10How beautiful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much better is your love than wine, and the fragrance of your oils than any spice!

11Your lips drip nectar, my bride; honey and milk are under your tongue; the fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.

12A garden locked is my sister, my bride, a spring locked, a fountain sealed.

13Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates with all choicest fruits, henna with nard,

14nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense, myrrh and aloes, with all choice spices—

15a garden fountain, a well of living water, and flowing streams from Lebanon.

16Awake, O north wind, and come, O south wind! Blow upon my garden, let its spices flow. Let my beloved come to his garden, and eat its choicest fruits.
