Come with me from (A)Lebanon, my (B)bride,
May you come with me from Lebanon.
[a]Journey down from the top of (C)Amana,
From the top of (D)Senir and Hermon,
From the dens of lions,
From the mountains of leopards.
You have made my heart beat faster, (E)my sister, my bride;
You have made my heart beat faster with a single glance of your eyes,
With a single strand of your (F)necklace.
10 (G)How beautiful is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much (H)better is your love than wine,
And the (I)fragrance of your oils
Than all kinds of [b]spices!
11 Your lips, my bride, (J)drip (K)honey from the comb;
Honey and milk are under your tongue,
And the fragrance of your garments is like the (L)fragrance of Lebanon.

Come with me from Lebanon, my bride,
    come with me from Lebanon.
Come down[a] from Mount Amana,
    from the peaks of Senir and Hermon,
where the lions have their dens
    and leopards live among the hills.

You have captured my heart,
    my treasure,[b] my bride.
You hold it hostage with one glance of your eyes,
    with a single jewel of your necklace.
10 Your love delights me,
    my treasure, my bride.
Your love is better than wine,
    your perfume more fragrant than spices.
11 Your lips are as sweet as nectar, my bride.
    Honey and milk are under your tongue.
Your clothes are scented
    like the cedars of Lebanon.
