Love conversing
7
📚✭How beautiful are your sandaled feet, O prince’s daughter!
The curve of your thighs are like jewels,
the work of the hands of a skillful
craftsman.
2 📚Your navel is like a round goblet,
not lacking mixed wine.
Your waist is like a heap of wheat
encircled with lilies.
3 📚Your two breasts are like two young
gazelles that are twins.
4 📚Your neck is like a tower of ivory.
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 crowns you like Carmel,
and the hair of your head is like purple;
the king is held captive by its tresses.
6 📚How beautiful and how pleasing
you are, O love, with your charms!
7 📚Your stature is like a palm tree,
and your breasts like its clusters of fruit.
8 📚I said, “I will go up to the palm tree,
I will take hold of its boughs”.
Now may your breasts be like clusters
of the vine,
and the fragrance of your breath like apples,
9 📚And the roof of your mouth is like
the best wine for my beloved, that flows gently over the lips of those who are asleep.
Bride
10 📚✭I am my beloved’s,
and his desire is for me.
11 📚✭Come, my beloved, let us go out into
the field.
Let us spend the night in the villages.
12 📚Let us get up early to the vineyards.
Let us see if the vine flourishes,
whether the tender grape appears,
and the pomegranates bud.
There I will give you my love.
13 📚✭The mandrakes give a fragrance,
and at our gates are all kinds
of choice fruits, new and old,
which I have stored up for you,
O my beloved.
