\sp The woman's lover speaking to her
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 1 My darling, you are beautiful,
|
|
\q2 you are very beautiful!
|
|
\q2 Underneath your veil, your eyes are as gentle as doves.
|
|
\q1 Your long black hair moves from side to side like a flock of black goats
|
|
\q2 moving down the slopes of Mount Gilead.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 Your teeth are very white,
|
|
\q2 as white as sheep whose wool people have just cut,
|
|
\q1 as white as sheep that people have just washed in a stream.
|
|
\q1 You have all of your teeth on both sides;
|
|
\q2 none of them is missing.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon,
|
|
\q2 and your mouth is lovely.
|
|
\q1 Beneath your veil,
|
|
\q2 your cheeks are round and rosy like the halves of a pomegranate.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 Your long neck is beautiful, like the tower of King David
|
|
\q2 that was built using layers of stone.
|
|
\q1 The ornaments on the necklaces around your neck are like a thousand shields hanging on the walls of a tower;
|
|
\q2 each one belongs to a warrior.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 Your breasts are as delicate as two young twin deer
|
|
\q2 eating grass among lilies.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 Until dawn tomorrow morning,
|
|
\q2 when the nighttime shadows disappear,
|
|
\q1 I will lie close to your breasts,
|
|
\q2 because they are like two hills that smell like sweet spices.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 My darling, you are completely beautiful;
|
|
\q2 your body is perfectly formed!
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 8 My darling, it is as though you were in Lebanon
|
|
\q2 far away, where I cannot reach you.
|
|
\q1 Come back to me.
|
|
\q1 It is as though you were on the top of Mount Hermon
|
|
\q2 or the nearby peaks, where I cannot go to you.
|
|
\q1 Come from the mountains, where the lions have their dens
|
|
\q2 and where the leopards live on the mountains.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 9 You who are most dear to me, when I see you,
|
|
\q2 you force me to love you
|
|
\q2 when I see you look at me, when I see a little of the jewelry that you wear around your neck.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 My bride, your love for me is delightful!
|
|
\q2 It more delightful than wine!
|
|
\q1 The fragrance of your perfume
|
|
\q2 is more pleasing than any spice!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 11 When you kiss me, it is better than when I eat honey.
|
|
\q2 Your kisses are as sweet as milk mixed with honey.
|
|
\q2 The aroma of your clothes
|
|
\q2 is like the aroma of cedar trees in Lebanon.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 12 You who are most dear to me, you are like a garden that the owner keeps locked
|
|
\q2 in order that other men cannot enter it;
|
|
\q1 you are like a spring that is covered
|
|
\q2 in order that others may not drink from it.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 13 You are like an orchard of pomegranate trees
|
|
\q2 full of delicious fruit,
|
|
\q2 and plenty of plants that produce henna and nard spices,
|
|
\q2
|
|
\v 14 saffron and calamus and cinnamon
|
|
\q2 and many other kinds of incense,
|
|
\q2 myrrh and aloes
|
|
\q2 and many other fine spices.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 15 You are like a fountain in a garden,
|
|
\q2 like a spring of clear water
|
|
\q2 that flows down from the mountains of Lebanon.
|
|
\b
|
|
\sp The young woman speaking to her lover
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 16 I want the north wind and the south wind to come,
|
|
\q2 and blow on my garden,
|
|
\q1 in order that the fragrance of the spices will spread through the air.
|
|
\q1 Similarly, I want the one who loves me to come and enjoy being close to me
|
|
\q2 like someone comes into a garden and enjoys eating the fruit that grows there.
