You have ravished my heart,
My sister, my spouse;
You have ravished my heart

My sister, my spouse!
(A)How much better than wine is your love,
And the [a]scent of your perfumes

11 Your lips, O my spouse,

(B)Honey and milk are under your tongue;
And the fragrance of your garments
Is (C)like the fragrance of Lebanon.
