1. Behold, you are beautiful, my love,behold, you are beautiful! Your eyes are doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goatsleaping down the slopes of Gilead.
2. Your teeth are like a flock of shorn ewesthat have come up from the washing,all of which bear twins,and not one among them has lost its young.
3. Your lips are like a scarlet thread,and your mouth is lovely.Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate behind your veil.
4. Your neck is like the tower of David,built in rows of stone;on it hang a thousand shields,all of them shields of warriors.
5. Your two breasts are like two fawns,twins of a gazelle,that graze among the lilies.
6. Until the day breathesand the shadows flee,I will go away to the mountain of myrrhand the hill of frankincense.
