4:1
How beautiful you are, my love! How your eyes shine with love behind your veil.
Your hair dances like a flock of goats bounding down the hills of Gilead.
4:2
Your teeth are as white as sheep that have just been shorn and washed. Not one of
them is missing; they are all perfectly matched.
4:3
Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon; how lovely they are when you speak. Your
cheeks glow behind your veil.
4:4
Your neck is like the tower of David, round and
smooth, with a necklace like a thousand shields hung around it.
4:5
Your breasts are like gazelles, twin deer feeding among lilies.
4:6
I will stay on the hill of myrrh, the hill of incense, until the morning
breezes blow and the darkness disappears.
4:7
How beautiful you are, my love; how perfect you are!
4:8
Come with me from the Lebanon Mountains, my bride; come with me from Lebanon.
Come down from the top of Mount Amana, from Mount Senir and Mount Hermon, where
the lions and leopards live.
4:9
The look in your eyes, my sweetheart and bride, and
the necklace you are wearing have stolen my heart.
4:10
Your love delights me, my sweetheart and bride. Your love is better than wine;
your perfume more fragrant than any spice.
4:11
The taste of honey is on your lips, my darling; your tongue is milk and honey
for me. Your clothing has all the fragrance of Lebanon.
4:12
My sweetheart, my bride, is a secret garden, a walled garden, a private spring;
4:13
there the plants flourish. They grow like an orchard of pomegranate trees and
bear the finest fruits. There is no lack of henna and nard,
4:14
of saffron, calamus, and cinnamon, or incense of every kind. Myrrh and aloes
grow there with all the most fragrant perfumes.
4:15
Fountains water the garden, streams of flowing water, brooks gushing down from
the Lebanon Mountains.
4:16
Wake up, North Wind. South Wind, blow on my garden; fill the air with
fragrance. Let my lover come to his garden and eat the best of its fruits.
