Dual Panel1The Lover to His Beloved: Oh <02005>, you are beautiful <03303>, my darling <07474>! Oh <02005>, you are beautiful <03303>! Your eyes <05869> behind <01157> your veil <06777> are like doves <03123>. Your hair <08181> is like a flock <05739> of female goats <05795> descending <01570> from Mount <02022> Gilead <01568>.
2Your teeth <08127> are like a flock <05739> of newly-shorn <07094> sheep coming up <05927> from <04480> the washing <07367> place; each of them <03605> has a twin <08382>, and not one <0369> of them is missing <07909>.
3Your lips <08193> are like a scarlet <08144> thread <02339>; your mouth <04057> is lovely <05000>. Your forehead <07541> behind <01157> your veil <06777> is like a slice <06400> of pomegranate <07416>.
4Your neck <06677> is like the tower <04026> of David <01732> built <01129> with courses of stones <08530>; one thousand <0505> shields <04043> are hung <08518> on <05921> it– all <03605> shields <07982> of valiant warriors <01368>.
5Your two <08147> breasts <07699> are like two <08147> fawns <06082>, twins <08380> of the gazelle <06646> grazing <07462> among the lilies <07799>.
6Until <05704> the dawn <03117> arrives <06315> and the shadows <06752> flee <05127>, I will go up <01980> to <0413> the mountain <02022> of myrrh <04753>, and to <0413> the hill <01389> of frankincense <03828>.
7You are altogether <03605> beautiful <03303>, my darling <07474>! There is no <0369> blemish <03971> in you!
8Come with <0854> me from Lebanon <03844>, my bride <03618>, come <0935> with <0854> me from Lebanon <03844>. Descend <07789> from the crest <07218> of Amana <0549>, from the top <07218> of Senir <08149>, the summit of Hermon <02768>, from the lions <0738>’ dens <04585> and the mountain <02042> haunts of the leopards <05246>.
9You have stolen my heart <03823>, my sister <0269>, my bride <03618>! You have stolen my heart <03823> with one <0259> glance of your eyes <05869>, with one <0259> jewel of your necklace <06677> <06060>.
10How <04100> delightful <03302> is your love <01730>, my sister <0269>, my bride <03618>! How <04100> much better <02895> is your love <01730> than wine <03196>; the fragrance <07381> of your perfume <08081> is better than any <03605> spice <01314>!
11Your lips <08193> drip <05197> sweetness like the honeycomb <05317>, my bride <03618>, honey <01706> and milk <02461> are under <08478> your tongue <03956>. The fragrance <07381> of your garments <08008> is like the fragrance <07381> of Lebanon <03844>.
12The Lover to His Beloved: You are a locked <05274> garden <01588>, my sister <0269>, my bride <03618>; you are an enclosed <05274> spring <01530>, a sealed-up <02856> fountain <04599>.
13Your shoots <07973> are a royal garden <06508> full of pomegranates <07416> with <05973> choice <04022> fruits <06529>: henna <03724> with <05973> nard <05373>,
14nard <05373> and saffron <03750>; calamus <07070> and cinnamon <07076> with <05973> every kind <03605> of spice <03828> <06086>, myrrh <04753> and aloes <0174> with <05973> all <03605> the finest <07218> spices <01314>.
15You are a garden <01588> spring <04599>, a well <0875> of fresh <02416> water <04325> flowing down <05140> from <04480> Lebanon <03844>.
16The Beloved to Her Lover: Awake <05782>, O north <06828> wind; come <0935>, O south wind <08486>! Blow <06315> on my garden <01588> so that its fragrant spices <01314> may send out <05140> their sweet smell. May my beloved <01730> come <0935> into his garden <01588> and eat <0398> its delightful <04022> fruit <06529>!
