The Man Speaks to the Woman

How beautiful you are, my darling!
    Oh, you are beautiful!
Your eyes behind your veil are like doves.
    Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down Mount Gilead.
Your teeth are white like newly sheared sheep
    just coming from their bath.
Each one has a twin,
    and none of them is missing.
Your lips are like red silk thread,
    and your mouth is lovely.
Your cheeks behind your veil
    are like slices of a pomegranate.
