where has the man you love gone?

2 The man who I love has come to me.
I am like his garden where pleasant spices grow.
He has come to enjoy my body as a gazelle enjoys grazing in a garden and as a person enjoys picking lilies. 3 I belong to the man I love, and he belongs to me.

10 Look at this woman who appears like the dawn,
who is as beautiful to look at as the moon,
who is radiant like the sun,
who is as exciting and majestic to look at as an army with banners!

to look at the new plants that were growing in the valley.
I wanted to see if the grapevines had budded
and if the pomegranate trees were blooming.
12 All of a sudden
I imagined that I was among the chariots of my noble people.
The
13 Come back to us beautiful woman from Shulam,
come back to us, in order that we may see you!

Why do you want to look at the beautiful woman from Shulam,
as if she were a dancer who dances to entertain armies?
