BLUE NUDE



 How beautiful you are, my darling!
       Oh, how beautiful!
       Your eyes behind your veil are doves.
       Your hair is like a flock of goats
       descending from Mount Gilead.

 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep just shorn,
       coming up from the washing.
       Each has its twin;
       not one of them is alone.


 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon;
       your mouth is lovely.
       Your temples behind your veil
       are like the halves of a pomegranate.


 Your neck is like the tower of David,
       built with elegance [a] ;
       on it hang a thousand shields,
       all of them shields of warriors.


 Your two breasts are like two fawns,
       like twin fawns of a gazelle
       that browse among the lilies.


 Until the day breaks
       and the shadows flee,
       I will go to the mountain of myrrh
       and to the hill of incense.


 All beautiful you are, my darling;
       there is no flaw in you.


SONG OF SOLOMON 4:1-7
