Song of Solomon 6:13–7:7

¹³Dance, dance,^k girl of Shulam. Let us watch you as you dance.

The Woman

Why do you want to watch me

as I dance between the rows of onlookers?

7What a wonderful woman you are!

How beautiful are your feet in sandals.

The curve of your thighs

is like the work of an artist.

²A bowl is there,

that never runs out of spiced wine.

A sheaf of wheat is there,

surrounded by lilies.

³Your breasts are like twin deer,

like two gazelles.

⁴

Your neck is like a tower of ivory. Your eyes are like the pools in the city of Heshbon,

near the gate of that great city.

Your nose is as lovely as the tower of Lebanon

that stands guard at Damascus.

⁵Your head is held high like Mount Carmel.

Your braided hair shines like the finest satin;

its beauty^l could hold a king captive.

⁶How pretty you are, how beautiful;

how complete the delights of your love.

⁷You are as graceful as a palm tree,

and your breasts are clusters of dates.
