Songs:4
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Behold ,
you are fair ,
my love ;
behold ,
you are fair ;
you have doves '
eyes within your locks :
your hair is as a flock of goats ,
that appear from mount Gilead .
*
Your teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even shorn ,
which came up from the washing ;
whereof every one bear twins ,
and none is barren among them .
*
Your lips are like a thread of scarlet ,
and your speech is comely :
your temples are like a piece of a pomegranate within your locks .
*
Your neck is like the tower of David built for an armoury ,
whereon there hang a thousand bucklers ,
all shields of mighty men .
*
Your two breasts are like two young roes that are twins ,
which feed among the lilies .
*
Until the day break ,
and the shadows flee away ,
I will get me to the mountain of myrrh ,
and to the hill of frankincense .
*
You are all fair ,
my love ;
there is no spot in you .
*
Come with me from Lebanon ,
my spouse ,
with me from Lebanon :
look from the top of Amana ,
from the top of Shenir and Hermon ,
from the lions '
dens ,
from the mountains of the leopards .
*
You have ravished my heart ,
my sister ,
my spouse ;
you have ravished my heart with one of yours eyes ,
with one chain of your neck .
*
How fair is your love ,
my sister ,
my spouse !
how much better is your love than wine !
and the smell of yours ointments than all spices !
*
Your lips ,
O my spouse ,
drop as the honeycomb :
honey and milk are under your tongue ;
and the smell of your garments is like the smell of Lebanon .
*
A garden enclosed is my sister ,
my spouse ;
a spring shut up ,
a fountain sealed .
*
Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates ,
with pleasant fruits ;
camphire ,
with spikenard ,
*
Spikenard and saffron ;
calamus and cinnamon ,
with all trees of frankincense ;
myrrh and aloes ,
with all the chief spices :
*
A fountain of gardens ,
a well of living waters ,
and streams from Lebanon .
*
Awake ,
O north wind ;
and come ,
you south ;
blow upon my garden ,
that the spices thereof may flow out .
Let my beloved come into his garden ,
and eat his pleasant fruits .
