Song of Solomon 7 EASY

« The young man:

1. How beautiful are your feet in sandals, my princess! Your round hips are as beautiful as jewels that a clever worker has made.

2. Your navel is like a round bowl that is always full of good wine. Your stomach is like a round heap of wheat with lilies around the edge.

3. Your breasts are like two young gazelles that are twins.

4. Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes shine like the pools in Heshbon that are near the Bath Rabbim gate. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon that looks towards Damascus.

5. Your head stands tall on you, like Mount Carmel. Your long hair hangs down like a royal cloth. It is so beautiful that it can make the king its prisoner!

6. You are very beautiful, my dear friend, and I love you. You give a lot of pleasure to me.

7. You stand like a tall palm tree. Your breasts are like bunches of fruit that hang from the tree.

8. I said, ‘I will climb the palm tree. I will take hold of its fruit.’ For me, your breasts are like bunches of grapes. Your breath is like the sweet smell of apples.

The young woman:

9. For me, your mouth has the taste of the best wine. May the wine pour out for my lover. May it pour over his lips and his teeth.

10. I belong to my lover, and he wants to be with me!

11. Come with me now, my lover! Let us go and walk through the fields. We can stay in the villages for the night.

12. We can get up early in the morning and go to the vineyards. We can see if the vines have started to make new leaves. We can see if their flowers have opened. We can see if the pomegranate trees have flowers. When we are there I will give my love to you.

13. The mandrake plants send out their sweet smell. At our door, there are many good things to eat. I have stored many good things that are both old and new. I have kept them all for you, my lover.
