Holman Christian Standard Bible

Song Of Songs 5:1-5 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. MI have come to my garden — my sister, my bride.I gather my myrrh with my spices.I eat my honeycomb with my honey.I drink my wine with my milk.Eat, friends!Drink, be intoxicated with love!

2. I sleep, but my heart is awake.A sound! My love is knocking! Open to me, my sister, my darling,my dove, my perfect one.For my head is drenched with dew,my hair with droplets of the night.

3. I have taken off my clothing. How can I put it back on?I have washed my feet.How can I get them dirty?

4. My love thrust his hand through the opening,and my feelings were stirred for him.

5. I rose to open for my love.My hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with flowing myrrhon the handles of the bolt.
