"Your neck is like a tower of ivory. Your eyes like the fish ponds at Heshbon, which are at the entrance to the daughter of the multitude. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon, which looks out toward Damascus."
— Song Of Solomon 7:5, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries.”
“Thy head upon thee is like Carmel, And the hair of thy head like purple; The king is held captive in the tresses thereof. ”
“Your head on you is like Carmel. The hair of your head like purple. The king is held captive in its tresses.”
“Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel. The locks of your hair are like royal tapestries– the king is held captive in its tresses!”
“Thy head is like Carmel: and the hairs of thy head as the purple of the king bound in the channels.”
“Your head is like Carmel, and the hair of your head is like purple, in whose net the king is prisoner.”
“Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries.”
Chorus to Bride: How beautiful are your footsteps in shoes, O daughter of a ruler! The joints of your thighs are like jewels, which have been fabricated by the hand of an artist.
Your navel is a round bowl, never lacking in curvature. Your abdomen is like a bundle of wheat, surrounded with lilies.
Your two breasts are like two young twin does.
Your neck is like a tower of ivory. Your eyes like the fish ponds at Heshbon, which are at the entrance to the daughter of the multitude. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon, which looks out toward Damascus.
Your head is like Carmel, and the hairs of your head are like the purple of the king, bound into pleats.
Most beloved one, how beautiful you are, and how graceful in delights!
Your stature is comparable to the palm tree, and your breasts to clusters of grapes.
