Song of Solomon 4:9-11

Contemporary English Version

⁹ My bride, my very own,
    you have stolen my heart!
With one glance from your eyes
and the glow of your necklace,
    you have stolen my heart.
¹⁰ Your love is sweeter than wine;
the smell of your perfume
    is more fragrant than spices.
¹¹ Your lips are a honeycomb;
milk and honey
    flow from your tongue.
Your dress has the aroma
    of cedar trees from Lebanon.
