        You are beautiful in every way, my true love.
            There is no blemish on you.
        You will come with me from Lebanon,
            from Lebanon as my bride.
        You will travel with me
            from the peak of Mount Amana,
            from the mountain peaks in Senir and Hermon,
            from the lairs of lions,
            from the mountains of leopards.
        My bride, my sister, you have charmed me.[a]
        You have charmed me
            with a single glance from your eyes,
            with a single strand of your necklace.
