My dove
The Israelites considered doves beautiful birds with pleasant voices. The man thinks the woman's face and voice are beautiful. If calling a woman a "dove" would be offensive, you could leave out the metaphor. See how you translated this in Song of Songs 2:14. Alternate translation: "You beautiful woman" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor)
my perfect one
Or "my faithful one" or "my innocent one." See how you translated this in Song of Songs 5:2.
the only daughter of her mother

the woman who bore her
"the woman who gave birth to her." This phrase refers to her mother.
