Song of Songs 4:3-11

3Your lips are like a strand of scarlet, And your mouth is lovely. Your temples behind your veil Are like a piece of pomegranate.

4Your neck is like the tower of David, Built for an armory, On which hang a thousand bucklers, All shields of mighty men.

5Your two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle, Which feed among the lilies.

6Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh And to the hill of frankincense.

7You are all fair, my love, And there is no spot in you.

8Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, With me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, From the top of Senir and Hermon, From the lions’ dens, From the mountains of the leopards.

9You have ravished my heart, My sister, my spouse; You have ravished my heart With one look of your eyes, With one link of your necklace.

10How fair is your love, My sister, my spouse! How much better than wine is your love, And the scent of your perfumes Than all spices!

11Your lips, O my spouse, Drip as the honeycomb; Honey and milk are under your tongue; And the fragrance of your garments Is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
