Song of Solomon 4:12–15

A garden locked is my sister, my bride,

a spring locked, a fountain sealed.

Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates

with all choicest fruits,

henna with nard,

nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,

with all trees of frankincense,

myrrh and aloes,

with all choice spices—

a garden fountain, a well of living water,

and flowing streams from Lebanon.

My sister, my bride, you are a locked garden—

a locked garden and a sealed spring.

Your branches are a paradise of pomegranates

with choicest fruits;

henna with nard,

nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,

with all the trees of frankincense,

myrrh and aloes,

with all the best spices.

You are a garden spring,

a well of flowing water

streaming from Lebanon.

You are my private garden, my treasure, my bride,

a secluded spring, a hidden fountain.

Your thighs shelter a paradise of pomegranates

with rare spices—

henna with nard,

nard and saffron,

fragrant calamus and cinnamon,

with all the trees of frankincense, myrrh, and aloes,

and every other lovely spice.

You are a garden fountain,

a well of fresh water

streaming down from Lebanon’s mountains.

A garden locked is my sister bride,

a spring enclosed, a fountain sealed.

Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates with choice fruit,

henna with nard;

nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon spice with all trees of frankincense,

myrrh and aloes with all chief spices.

A garden fountain, a well of living water,

flowing (streams) from Lebanon.

A garden inclosed is my sister, my spouse;

A spring shut up, a fountain sealed.

Thy plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits;

Camphire, with spikenard,

Spikenard and saffron;

Calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense;

Myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices:

A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters,

And streams from Lebanon.
