# Song of Solomon 7
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. How beautiful are your feet in sandals, O noble daughter! Your rounded thighs are like jewels, the work of a master hand.
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. Your navel is a rounded bowl that never lacks mixed wine. Your belly is a heap of wheat, encircled with lilies.
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are pools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bath-rabbim. Your nose is like a tower of Lebanon, which looks toward Damascus.
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. Your head crowns you like Carmel, and your flowing locks are like purple; a king is held captive in the tresses.
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. How beautiful and pleasant you are, O loved one, with all your delights!
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. Your stature is like a palm tree, and your breasts are like its clusters.
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. I say I will climb the palm tree and lay hold of its fruit. Oh may your breasts be like clusters of the vine, and the scent of your breath like apples,
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. and your mouth like the best wine. She It goes down smoothly for my beloved, gliding over lips and teeth.
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. I am my beloveds, and his desire is for me.
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. Come, my beloved, let us go out into the fields and lodge in the villages;
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. let us go out early to the vineyards and see whether the vines have budded, whether the grape blossoms have opened and the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. The mandrakes give forth fragrance, and beside our doors are all choice fruits, new as well as old, which I have laid up for you, O my beloved.
(ESV)
