1 Where has your dawad (beloved) halak (move), you fairest among nashayam (women)? Where has your dawad (beloved) panah (turn), that we may baqash (seek) him with you? Beloved
2 My dawad (beloved) has yarad (gone) down to his gan (garden), to the irawagawath (beds) of basham (spices), to raih (feed) in the ganayam (gardens), and to laqat (gather) shawashanayam (lilies).
3 I am my dawad (beloved's), and my dawad (beloved) is mine. He browses among the shawashanayam (lilies),
4 You are yapah (beautiful), my raiyah (love), as Tharatzah (Tirzah), lovely as Yarawashalam (Yarawashalam / Jerusalem), awesome as an army with nadagalawath (banners).
5 Sabab (turn) away your iyan (eye) from me, for they have rahab (overcome) me. Your shair (hair) is like a idar (flock) of izayam (goats), that lie along the side of Galaid (Gilead).
6 Your shan (teeth) are like a idar (flock) of rachalayam (ewes), which have ilah (go up / offer) up from the rachatzah (washing); of which every one has mathaayamawath (twins); none is shakawal (bereaved) among them.
7 Your raqah (temples) are like a palach (piece) of a ramawan (pomegranate) behind your tzamah (veil).
8 There are shashayam (sixty) malakawath (queens), shamanayam (eighty) payalagashayam (concubines), and ilamawath (virgins) without masapar (number).
9 My yawanah (dove), my tham (perfect) achad (one), is unique. She is her am (mother) only achad (one). She is the favorite one of her who yalad (birth / begot) her. The banawath (daughters) raah (see / saw) her, and ashar (who/that) her blessed; the malakawath (queens) and the payalagashayam (concubines), and they halal (praise) her.
10 Who is she who shaqap (looks) forth as the shachar (morning), yapah (beautiful) as the labanah (moon), bar (clear) as the chamah (sun), and awesome as an army with nadagalawath (banners)?
11 I yarad (went) down into the agawaz (nut) tree grove, to raah (see / saw) the green plants of the nachal (stream / river), to raah (see / saw) whether the gapan (vine) nawatz (budded), and the ramanayam (pomegranates) were in flower.
12 Without realizing it, my napash (soul) shawam (place / establish / appoint) me with my royal napash (soul) marakabawath (chariots). Friends
13 How beautiful are your feet in sandals, prince's daughter! Your rounded thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a skillful workman.
