¹ "^(F1)How beautiful are your ^(F2)feet in sandals,
O ^(C1)noble's daughter!
The curves of your thighs are like ornaments,
The work of the hands of an artist.

² "Your navel is like a round basin
Which never lacks mixed wine;
Your belly is like a heap of wheat
Encircled with lilies.

³ "Your ^(C1)two breasts are like two fawns,
Twins of a gazelle.

⁴ "Your ^(C1)neck is like a tower of ivory,
Your eyes like the pools in ^(C2)Heshbon
By the gate of Bath-rabbim;
Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon,
Which faces toward Damascus.

⁵ "Your head ^(F1)crowns you like ^(C1)Carmel,
And the flowing locks of your head are like purple threads;
The king is captivated by your tresses.

⁶ "How ^(C1)beautiful and how pleasant you are,
^(F1)My love, with all your pleasures!

⁷ "^(F1)Your stature is like a palm tree,
And your breasts are like its clusters.

⁸ "I said, 'I will climb the palm tree;
I will seize its fruit stalks.'
Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine,
And the fragrance of your ^(F1)breath like ^(F2)(C1)apples,

⁹ And your ^(F1)(C1)mouth like the best wine!"
"^(F2)It ^(C2)goes down smoothly for my beloved,
Flowing gently through the lips of those who fall asleep.

The Union of Love

¹⁰ "^(C1)I am my beloved's,
And his ^(C2)desire is for me.

¹¹ "Come, my beloved, let us go out into the ^(F1)fields,
Let us spend the night in the villages.

¹² "Let us rise early and go to the vineyards;
Let us ^(C1)see whether the vine has flourished
And its blossoms have opened,
And whether the pomegranates have bloomed.
There I will give you my love.

¹³ "The ^(C1)mandrakes have given forth fragrance;
And over our doors are all ^(C2)choice fruits,
Both new and old,
Which I have treasured up for you, my beloved.
