1. I have entered my garden,my sweetheart, my bride.I am gathering my spices and myrrh;I am eating my honey and honeycomb;I am drinking my wine and milk.Eat, lovers, and drinkuntil you are drunk with love!
2. While I slept, my heart was awake.I dreamt my lover knocked at the door.Let me come in, my darling,my sweetheart, my dove.My head is wet with dew,and my hair is damp from the mist.
3. I have already undressed;why should I get dressed again?I have washed my feet;why should I get them dirty again?
4. My lover put his hand to the door,and I was thrilled that he was near.
