Song Of Solomon

You are altogether beautiful

Oh girl companion of mine

And there is no defect in you

There is no defect in you

With me from lebanon my bride

With me from lebanon, may you come

May you descend from the top

From the top of anti-lebanon

From the top of samir

Or even hermon

From the lairs of lions

From the mouths of leopards

You have made my heart beat

Oh my sister, my bride

You have made my heart beat

By one of your eyes

By just one pendant of your necklace

Open to me, oh my sister, my girl companion

For my head is filled with the dew

The locks of my hair with the drops of the night

I've put off my robe, how can I put it back on

I've washed my feet, how can I soil them

I am asleep, but my heart is awake

To the sound of knocking, my dear one knocking

My dove, my blameless one

Until the day breathes and the shadows have fled

She'll go my way to the mountain of myrrh

To the hill of frankincense
