Song of Solomon 7:1-9 ▼

1 How beautiful are your sandaled feet, princess! The curves of your thighs are like jewelry, the handiwork of a master.

2 Your navel is a rounded bowl; it never lacks mixed wine. Your belly is a mound of wheat surrounded by lilies.

3 Your breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.

4 Your neck is like a tower of ivory, your eyes like pools in Heshbon by Bath-rabbim’s gate. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon looking toward Damascus.

5 Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel, the hair of your head like purple cloth — a king could be held captive in your tresses.

6 How beautiful you are and how pleasant, my love, with such delights!

7 Your stature is like a palm tree; your breasts are clusters of fruit.

8 I said, “I will climb the palm tree and take hold of its fruit.” May your breasts be like clusters of grapes, and the fragrance of your breath like apricots.

9 Your mouth is like fine wine — Woman flowing smoothly for my love, gliding past my lips and teeth!
