1. The other women say, "You are the most beautiful woman of all. Where has the one who loves you gone? Which way did he turn? We'll help you look for him." The woman says,
2. "My love has gone down to his garden. He's gone to the beds of spices. He's eating in the gardens. He's gathering lilies.
3. I belong to my love, and he belongs to me. He's eating among the lilies." The king says,
4. "My love, you are as beautiful as the city of Tirzah. You are as lovely as Jerusalem. You are as majestic as troops carrying their banners.
5. Turn your eyes away from me. They overpower me. Your hair flows like a flock of black goats coming down from Mount Gilead.
6. Your teeth are as clean as a flock of sheep coming up from being washed. Each of your teeth has its twin. Not one of them is alone.
