1“12WhereH575 has your belovedH1730 goneH1980, O 3most beautifulH3303 among womenH802? WhereH575 has your belovedH1730 turnedH6437, That we may seekH1245 him with you?”

2“4My belovedH1730 has goneH3381 downH3381 to his 5gardenH1588, To the 6bedsH6170 of balsamH1314, To 7pastureH7462 his flock in the gardensH1588 And gatherH3950 8liliesH7799.39I am my beloved’sH1730 and my belovedH1730 is mine, He who 10pasturesH7462 his flock among the liliesH7799.”

4“1112You are as beautifulH3303 as 13TirzahH8656, my darlingH7474, As 14lovelyH5000 as 15JerusalemH3389, As 16awesomeH366 as 17an armyH1713 with bannersH1713.5TurnH5437 your eyesH5869 awayH5437 from me, For they have confusedH7292 me; 18Your hairH8181 is like a flockH5739 of goatsH5795 That have descendedH1570 from GileadH1568.619Your teethH8127 are like a flockH5739 of ewesH7353 WhichH7945 have comeH5927 up from their washingH7367, AllH3605 of whichH7945 bearH8382 twinsH8382, And not oneH369 among them has 20lostH7909 her youngH7909.721Your templesH7541 are like a sliceH6400 of a pomegranateH7416 BehindH4480H1157 your veilH6777.8ThereH1992 are sixtyH8346 22queensH4436 and eightyH8084 concubinesH6370, And 2324maidensH5959 withoutH369 numberH4557;9But 25my doveH3123, my perfectH8535 oneH8535, is 26uniqueH259: She is her mother’sH517 27onlyH259 daughter; She is the pureH1249 child of the one who boreH3205 her. The 2829maidensH1323 sawH7200 her and calledH833 her blessedH833, The 30queensH4436 and the concubinesH6370 also, and they praisedH1984 her, saying,

10‘WhoH4310 is thisH2088 that 31growsH8259 likeH3644 the dawnH7837, As beautifulH3303 as the fullH3842 32moonH3842, As pureH1249 33as the sunH2535, As 34awesomeH366 as 35an armyH1713 with bannersH1713?’11I wentH3381 downH3381 to the orchardH1593 of nutH93 treesH93 To seeH7200 the blossomsH3 of the valleyH5158, To seeH7200 whether 36the vineH1612 had buddedH6524 Or the 37pomegranatesH7416 had bloomedH5340.12Before I was awareH3045, my soulH5315 setH7760 me Over the chariotsH4818 of 38my nobleH5081 peopleH5971.”
