1Whither is thy beloved gone,
2My beloved is gone down to his garden,
3I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine:
4Thou art fair, O my love, as Tirzah,
5Turn away thine eyes from me,
6Thy teeth are like a flock of ewes,
7Thy temples are like a piece of a pomegranate
8There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines,
9My dove, my undefiled, is but one;
10Who is she that looketh forth as the morning,
11I went down into the garden of nuts,
12Before I was aware, my soul set me
13Return, return, O Shulammite;
