    Your hair is like a flock of goats
    leaping down the slopes of Gilead.

    all of them bear twins;
    not one among them has lost its young.

    behind your veil.
  • Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate
    behind your veil.

    the favorite of her mother,
    dearly loved by the one who bore her.

    even queens and royal concubines sing her praises:
  • My dove, my perfect one, is the only one,
    the only one of her mother,
    pure to her who bore her.
    The young women saw her and called her blessed;
    the queens and concubines also, and they praised her.
