1: How beautiful are your feet in sandals, prince's daughter! Your rounded thighs are like jewels, The work of the hands of a skillful workman. 2: Your body is like a round goblet, No mixed wine is wanting. Your waist is like a heap of wheat, Set about with lilies. 3: Your two breasts are like two fawns, That are twins of a roe. 4: Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are like the pools in Heshbon by the gate of Bath-rabbim; Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon which looks toward Damascus. 5: Your head on you is like Carmel, The hair of your head like purple; The king is held captive in its tresses. 6: How beautiful and how pleasant are you, Love, for delights! 7: This, your stature, is like a palm tree, Your breasts like its fruit. 8: I said, "I will climb up into the palm tree. I will take hold of its fruit." Let your breasts be like clusters of the vine, The smell of your breath like apples, Beloved 9: Your mouth like the best wine, That goes down smoothly for my beloved, Gliding through the lips of those who are asleep. 10: I am my beloved's. His desire is toward me. 11: Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field. Let us lodge in the villages. 12: Let's go early up to the vineyards. Let's see whether the vine has budded, Its blossom is open, And the pomegranates are in flower. There I will give you my love. 13: The mandrakes give forth fragrance. At our doors are all kinds of precious fruits, new and old, Which I have stored up for you, my beloved.
