New Living Translation

Song Of Songs 4:1-6 New Living Translation (NLT)

1. You are beautiful, my darling,beautiful beyond words.Your eyes are like dovesbehind your veil.Your hair falls in waves,like a flock of goats winding down the slopes of Gilead.

2. Your teeth are as white as sheep,recently shorn and freshly washed.Your smile is flawless,each tooth matched with its twin.

3. Your lips are like scarlet ribbon;your mouth is inviting.Your cheeks are like rosy pomegranatesbehind your veil.

4. Your neck is as beautiful as the tower of David,jeweled with the shields of a thousand heroes.

5. Your breasts are like two fawns,twin fawns of a gazelle grazing among the lilies.

6. Before the dawn breezes blowand the night shadows flee,I will hurry to the mountain of myrrhand to the hill of frankincense.
