Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:1 -

How beautiful are your sandaled feet, princess![fn]

The curves of your thighs are like jewelry,

the handiwork of a master.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:2 -

Your navel is a rounded bowl;

it never lacks mixed wine.

Your belly is a mound of wheat

surrounded by lilies.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:3 -

Your breasts are like two fawns,

twins of a gazelle.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:4 -

Your neck is like a tower of ivory,

your eyes like pools in Heshbon

by Bath-rabbim’s gate.

Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon

looking toward Damascus.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:5 -

Your head crowns you[fn] like Mount Carmel,

the hair of your head like purple cloth —

a king could be held captive in your tresses.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:6 -

How beautiful you are and how pleasant,

my love, with such delights!

Your stature is like a palm tree;

your breasts are clusters of fruit.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:8 -

I said, “I will climb the palm tree

and take hold of its fruit.”

May your breasts be like clusters of grapes,

and the fragrance of your breath like apricots.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:9 -

Your mouth[fn] is like fine wine —

flowing smoothly for my love,

gliding past my lips and teeth![fn]

I am my love’s,

and his desire is for me.

let’s go to the field;

let’s spend the night among the henna blossoms.[fn]

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:12 -

Let’s go early to the vineyards;

let’s see if the vine has budded,

if the blossom has opened,

if the pomegranates are in bloom.

There I will give you my caresses.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:13 -

The mandrakes give off a fragrance,

and at our doors is every delicacy,

both new and old.

I have treasured them up for you, my love.
