5“Turn your eyes away from me,
         For they have confused me;
         Your hair is like a flock of goats
         That have descended from Gilead.

6“Your teeth are like a flock of ewes
         Which have come up from their washing,
         All of which bear twins,
         And not one among them has lost her young.

7“Your temples are like a slice of a pomegranate
         Behind your veil.

8“There are sixty queens and eighty concubines,
         And maidens without number;

9But my dove, my perfect one, is unique:
         She is her mother’s only daughter;
         She is the pure child of the one who bore her.
         The maidens saw her and called her blessed,
         The queens and the concubines also, and they praised her, saying,

10‘Who is this that grows like the dawn,
         As beautiful as the full moon,
         As pure as the sun,
         As awesome as an army with banners?’

11“I went down to the orchard of nut trees
         To see the blossoms of the valley,
         To see whether the vine had budded
         Or the pomegranates had bloomed.

12“Before I was aware, my soul set me
         Over the chariots of my noble people.”

13“Come back, come back, O Shulammite;
         Come back, come back, that we may gaze at you!”
         
      “Why should you gaze at the Shulammite,
         As at the dance of the two companies?
