Song of Solomon 4:1-7

English Standard Version

4 Behold, ^(A)you are beautiful, my love,
    behold, you are beautiful!
^(B)Your eyes are doves
    ^(C)behind your veil.
^(D)Your hair is like a flock of goats
    leaping down ^(E)the slopes of Gilead.
² Your ^(F)teeth are like a flock of shorn ewes
    that have come up from the washing,
all of which bear twins,
    and not one among them has lost its young.
³ Your lips are like ^(G)a scarlet thread,
    and your mouth is ^(H)lovely.
Your ^(I)cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate
    ^(J)behind your veil.
⁴ Your ^(K)neck is like the tower of David,
    built in ^(L)rows of stone;^[a]
on it ^(M)hang a thousand shields,
    all of ^(N)them shields of warriors.
⁵ Your ^(O)two breasts are like two ^(P)fawns,
    twins of a gazelle,
    that ^(Q)graze among the lilies.
^6 (R)Until the day breathes
    and the shadows flee,
I will go away to the mountain of ^(S)myrrh
    and the hill of ^(T)frankincense.
^7 (U)You are altogether beautiful, my love;
    there is no ^(V)flaw in you.
