Your neck is like an ivory tower.
Your eyes shine like the pools in Heshbon
    that are near the Bath Rabbim gate.[a]
Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon
    that looks towards Damascus.[b]
Your head stands tall on you, like Mount Carmel.[c]

    and I love you.
You give a lot of pleasure to me.
