A loving deer and a pleasant doe! Let her breasts satisfy you at all times. And be captivated by her love always.
“And a traveller came to the rich man, who refused to take from his own flock and from his own herd to prepare one for the wayfaring man who had come to him, but he took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”
Drink water from your own cistern, And running water from your own well.
For why should you, my son, Be captivated by a strange woman, And embrace the bosom of a foreigner?
Until the day breaks and the shadows have fled, Turn, my beloved, And be like a gazelle or a young stag On the mountains of Bether.
My beloved is like a gazelle or like a young stag. See, he is standing behind our wall, Looking through the windows, Peering through the lattice.
Your two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle, pasturing among the lilies.
Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.
Hurry, my beloved, And be like a gazelle or a young stag On the mountains of spices.
