7:1 "How beautiful are your feet in sandals, O prince's daughter! The curves of your hips are like jewels, The work of the hands of an artist. 7:2 "Your navel is [like] a round goblet Which never lacks mixed wine; Your belly is like a heap of wheat Fenced about with lilies. 7:3 "Your two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle. 7:4 "Your neck is like a tower of ivory, Your eyes [like] the pools in Heshbon By the gate of Bath-rabbim; Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon, Which faces toward Damascus. 7:5 "Your head crowns you like Carmel, And the flowing locks of your head are like purple threads; [The] king is captivated by [your] tresses. 7:6 "How beautiful and how delightful you are, [My] love, with [all] your charms! 7:7 "Your stature is like a palm tree, And your breasts are [like its] clusters. 7:8 "I said, 'I will climb the palm tree, I will take hold of its fruit stalks.' Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine, And the fragrance of your breath like apples, 7:9 And your mouth like the best wine!" "It goes [down] smoothly for my beloved, Flowing gently [through] the lips of those who fall asleep. 7:10 "I am my beloved's, And his desire is for me. 7:11 "Come, my beloved, let us go out into the country, Let us spend the night in the villages. 7:12 "Let us rise early [and go] to the vineyards; Let us see whether the vine has budded [And its] blossoms have opened, [And whether] the pomegranates have bloomed. There I will give you my love. 7:13 "The mandrakes have given forth fragrance; And over our doors are all choice [fruits], Both new and old, Which I have saved up for you, my beloved.
