(A)Until [a]the cool of the day
When the shadows flee away,
I will go my way to the mountain of (B)myrrh
And to the hill of (C)frankincense.

(D)You are altogether beautiful, my darling,
And there is no blemish in you.
Come with me from (E)Lebanon, my (F)bride,
May you come with me from Lebanon.
[b]Journey down from the summit of (G)Amana,
From the summit of (H)Senir and Hermon,
From the dens of lions,
From the mountains of leopards.
