You are altogether beautiful Oh girl companion of mine And there is no defect in you There is no defect in you With me from lebanon my bride With me from lebanon, may you come May you descend from the top From the top of anti-lebanon From the top of samir Or even hermon From the lairs of lions From the mouths of leopards You have made my heart beat Oh my sister, my bride You have made my heart beat By one of your eyes By just one pendant of your necklace Open to me, oh my sister, my girl companion For my head is filled with the dew The locks of my hair with the drops of the night I've put off my robe, how can I put it back on I've washed my feet, how can I soil them I am asleep, but my heart is awake To the sound of knocking, my dear one knocking My dove, my blameless one Until the day breathes and the shadows have fled
She'll go my way to the mountain of myrrh To the hill of frankincense
