Song of Solomon 4 10-Song of Solomon 5 1
How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much better is your love than wine; the fragrance of your perfume is better than any spice!Your lips drip sweetness like the honeycomb, my bride, honey and milk are under your tongue. The fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.You are a locked garden, my sister, my bride; you are an enclosed spring, a sealed-up fountain.Your shoots are a royal garden full of pomegranates with choice fruits: henna with nard,nard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon with every kind of spice, myrrh and aloes with all the finest spices.You are a garden spring, a well of fresh water flowing down from Lebanon.Awake, O north wind; come, O south wind! Blow on my garden so that its fragrant spices may send out their sweet smell. May my beloved come into his garden and eat its delightful fruit!I have entered my garden, O my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh with my balsam spice. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk! Eat, friends, and drink! Drink freely, O lovers!
