Before the day breaks[a]
and the shadows flee,(A)
I will make my way to the mountain of myrrh
and the hill of frankincense.(B)
You are absolutely beautiful,(C) my darling,
with no imperfection in you.

Come with me from Lebanon,[b](D) my bride(E)
with me from Lebanon!
Descend from the peak of Amana,
from the summit of Senir and Hermon,(F)
from the dens of the lions,
from the mountains of the leopards.
