# Song of Solomon 4 He
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. Behold, you are beautiful, my love, behold, you are beautiful! Your eyes are doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats leaping down the slopes of Gilead.
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. Your teeth are like a flock of shorn ewes that have come up from the washing, all of which bear twins, and not one among them has lost its young.
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. Your lips are like a scarlet thread, and your mouth is lovely. Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate behind your veil.
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. Your neck is like the tower of David, built in rows of stone; on it hang a thousand shields, all of them shields of warriors.
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle, that graze among the lilies.
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. Until the day breathes and the shadows flee, I will go away to the mountain of myrrh and the hill of frankincense.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. You are altogether beautiful, my love; there is no flaw in you.
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. Come with me from Lebanon, my bride; come with me from Lebanon. Depart from the peak of Amana, from the peak of Senir and Hermon, from the dens of lions, from the mountains of leopards.
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. You have captivated my heart, my sister, my bride; you have captivated my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace.
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. How beautiful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much better is your love than wine, and the fragrance of your oils than any spice!
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. Your lips drip nectar, my bride; honey and milk are under your tongue; the fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. A garden locked is my sister, my bride, a spring locked, a fountain sealed.
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates with all choicest fruits, henna with nard,
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
14. nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense, myrrh and aloes, with all choice spices—
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
15. a garden fountain, a well of living water, and flowing streams from Lebanon.
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
16. Awake, O north wind, and come, O south wind! Blow upon my garden, let its spices flow. She Let my beloved come to his garden, and eat its choicest fruits.
