Song of Solomon

Chapter 4

New King James Version

1Behold, you [are] fair, my love! Behold, you [are] fair! You [have] dove's eyes behind your veil. Your hair [is] like a flock of goats, Going down from Mount Gilead. 2Your teeth [are] like a flock of shorn [sheep] Which have come up from the washing, Every one of which bears twins, And none [is] barren among them. 3Your lips [are] like a strand of scarlet, And your mouth is lovely. Your temples behind your veil [Are] like a piece of pomegranate. 4Your neck [is] like the tower of David, Built for an armory, On which hang a thousand bucklers, All shields of mighty men. 5Your two breasts [are] like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle, Which feed among the lilies. 6Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh And to the hill of frankincense. 7You [are] all fair, my love, And [there is] no spot in you. 8Come with me from Lebanon, [my] spouse, With me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, From the top of Senir and Hermon, From the lions' dens, From the mountains of the leopards. 9You have ravished my heart, My sister, [my] spouse; You have ravished my heart With one [look] of your eyes, With one link of your necklace. 10How fair is your love, My sister, [my] spouse! How much better than wine is your love, And the scent of your perfumes Than all spices! 11Your lips, O [my] spouse, Drip as the honeycomb; Honey and milk [are] under your tongue; And the fragrance of your garments [Is] like the fragrance of Lebanon. 12A garden enclosed [Is] my sister, [my] spouse, A spring shut up, A fountain sealed. 13Your plants [are] an orchard of pomegranates With pleasant fruits, Fragrant henna with spikenard, 14Spikenard and saffron, Calamus and cinnamon, With all trees of frankincense, Myrrh and aloes, With all the chief spices -- 15A fountain of gardens, A well of living waters, And streams from Lebanon. THE SHULAMITE 16Awake, O north [wind,] And come, O south! Blow upon my garden, [That] its spices may flow out. Let my beloved come to his garden And eat its pleasant fruits. THE BELOVED
