Dual Panel1The Lover to His Beloved: How <04100> beautiful <03303> are your sandaled <05275> feet <06471>, O nobleman’s <05081> daughter <01323>! The curves <02542> of your thighs <03409> are like <03644> jewels <02481>, the work <04639> of the hands <03027> of a master craftsman <0542>.
2Your navel <08326> is a round <05469> mixing bowl <0101>– may it never <0408> lack <02637> mixed wine <04197>! Your belly <0990> is a mound <06194> of wheat <02406>, encircled <05473> by lilies <07799>.
3Your two <08147> breasts <07699> are like two <08147> fawns <06082>, twins <08380> of a gazelle <06646>.
4Your neck <06677> is like a tower <04026> made of ivory <08127>. Your eyes <05869> are the pools <01295> in <05921> Heshbon <02809> by the gate <08179> of Bath-Rabbim <01337>. Your nose <0639> is like the tower <04026> of Lebanon <03844> overlooking <06822> Damascus <01834>.
5Your head <07218> crowns you like Mount Carmel <03760>. The locks <01803> of your hair <07218> are like royal tapestries <0713>– the king <04428> is held captive <0631> in its tresses <07298>!
6How <04100> beautiful <03302> you are! How <04100> lovely <05276>, O love <0160>, with your delights <08588>!
7The Lover to His Beloved: Your stature <06967> is like <01819> a palm <08558> tree, and your breasts <07699> are like clusters of grapes <0811>.
8I want <0559> to climb <05927> the palm tree <08558>, and take hold <0270> of its fruit stalks <05577>. May <04994> your breasts <07699> be <01961> like the clusters <0811> of grapes <01612>, and may the fragrance <07381> of your breath <0639> be like apricots <08598>!
9May your mouth <02441> be like the best <02896> wine <03196>, flowing <01980> smoothly <04339> for my beloved <01730>, gliding gently <01680> over our lips <08193> as we sleep <03462> together.
10The Beloved about Her Lover <01730>: I <0589> am my beloved’s, and he desires <08669> me!
11The Beloved to Her Lover: Come <01980>, my beloved <01730>, let us go <03318> to the countryside <07704>; let us spend the night <03885> in the villages <03723>.
12Let us rise early <07925> to go to the vineyards <03754>, to see <07200> if <0518> the vines <01612> have budded <06524>, to see if their blossoms <05563> have opened <06605>, if the pomegranates <07416> are in bloom <05132>– there <08033> I will give <05414> you my love <01730>.
13The mandrakes <01736> send out <05414> their fragrance <07381>; over <05921> our door <06607> is every <03605> delicacy <04022>, both <01571> new <02319> and old <03465>, which I have stored up <06845> for you, my lover <01730>.
