\sp The woman's lover speaking to her
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 1 How beautiful your feet appear in your sandals, prince's daughter!
|
|
\q The curves of your thighs are like jewels,
|
|
\q the work of the hands of a master craftsman.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 2 Your navel is like a round bowl;
|
|
\q may it never lack mixed wine.
|
|
\q Your belly is like a mound of wheat
|
|
\q encircled with lilies.
|

\q
|
|
\v 3 Your two breasts are like two fawns,
|
|
\q twins of a gazelle.

|
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 Your neck is like a tower of ivory;
|
|
\q your eyes like the pools in Heshbon
|
|
\q by the gate of Bath Rabbim.

|
|
\q that looks toward Damascus.

\q beloved one, with your delights!
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 Your height is like that of a date palm tree,
|
|
\q and your breasts like clusters of fruit.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 8 I thought, "I want to climb that palm tree;
|
|
\q I will take hold of its branches."
|
|
\q May your breasts be like clusters of grapes,
|
|
\q and may the fragrance of your nose be like apricots.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 May your mouth be like the best wine,
|
|
\q flowing smoothly to my beloved,
|

|
\q let us spend the night in the villages.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 Let us rise early to go to the vineyards;
|
|
\q let us see whether the vines have budded,
|
|
\q whether their blossoms have opened,
|
|
\q and whether the pomegranates are in flower.
|
|
\q There I will give you my love.
|
|
|

\q

|
\v 13 The mandrakes give off their fragrance;
|
|
\q at the door where we are staying are all sorts of choice fruits, new and old,
|
|
\q that I have stored up for you, my beloved.
