| 1 | ’Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? Whither hath thy beloved turned him, That we may seek him with thee?’ |
| 2 | ’My beloved is gone down into his garden, To the beds of spices, To feed in the gardens, And to gather lilies. |
| 3 | I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine, That feedeth among the lilies.’ |
| 4 | Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, Comely as Jerusalem, Terrible as an army with banners. |
| 5 | Turn away thine eyes from me, For they have overcome me. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, That trail down from Gilead. |
| 6 | Thy teeth are like a flock of ewes, Which are come up from the washing; Whereof all are paired, And none faileth among them. |
| 7 | Thy temples are like a pomegranate split open Behind thy veil. |
| 8 | There are threescore queens, And fourscore concubines, And maidens without number. |
| 9 | My dove, my undefiled, is but one; She is the only one of her mother; She is the choice one of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and called her happy; Yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her. |
| 10 | Who is she that looketh forth as the dawn, Fair as the moon, Clear as the sun, Terrible as an army with banners? |
| 11 | I went down into the garden of nuts, To look at the green plants of the valley, To see whether the vine budded, And the pomegranates were in flower. |
| 12 | Before I was aware, my soul set me Upon the chariots of my princely people. |
