1 How beautiful are your feet in sandals, O royal princess! The curves of your ⌞thighs⌟ are like ⌞jewels⌟, the work of the hands of a craftsman.
2 Your navel is ⌞a round wine-mixing bowl⌟ that does not lack mixed wine! Your belly is a heap of wheat encircled with lilies.
3 Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.
4 Your neck is like a tower of ivory; your eyes are pools in Heshbon at the gate of Beth Rabbim. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon ⌞looking out over Damascus⌟.
5 ⌞Your head crowns you like Carmel⌟; the flowing locks of your head are like ⌞purple tapestry⌟; a king is held captive in the tresses!
6 How beautiful you are and how pleasant, O loved one in the delights!
7 ⌞Your stature⌟ is like the palm tree, and your breasts are like clusters.
8 I say, “I will climb up the palm tree; I will lay hold of its fruit clusters.” Let your breasts be pleasing like clusters of the vine and the scent of your breath like the apples.
9 Your palate is like the best wine that goes down for my beloved, smoothly gliding over my lips and teeth.
10 ⌞I belong to my beloved⌟, ⌞and he desires me⌟!
11 Come, my beloved, let us ⌞go out to the countryside⌟; let us spend the night in the villages.
12 Let us rise early to go to the vineyards; let us see whether the vine has budded, whether the grape blossom has opened, and whether the pomegranates ⌞are in bloom⌟; there I will give my love to you.
13 The mandrakes give off their fragrance, and ⌞over our doorway is every kind of delicious fruit⌟; both ⌞fresh and dried fruit I have stored up⌟ for you, O my beloved.
