Canticles
 
your love is better than wine
lily among thorns
your eyes are doves’ eyes by the rivers of waters
 
let me hear your voice, for sweet is the sound,
until the day break and the shadows flee away.
 
I sleep but my heart wakens, it is the voice of my
beloved.
 
my heart yearned for you
my soul failed when my beloved spoke
 
turn away your eyes from me for they have overwhelmed me
 
for love is as strong as death;
jealousy as cruel as the grave;
the flames thereof are coals of fire
which has a most vehement flame.
