1Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women?
2My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices,
3I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine:
4Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah,
5Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me:
6Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing,
7As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks.
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 to see the fruits of the valley,
12Or ever I was aware,
13Return, return, O Shulamite;
