He Praises Her Beauty

Princess,[a] your feet are beautiful in those sandals.
    The curves of your thighs are like jewelry made by an artist.
Your navel is like a round cup[b];
    may it never be without wine.
Your belly is like a pile of wheat
    surrounded by lilies.
Your breasts are like twin fawns
    of a young gazelle.
