'Bride' in the Bible

Come with me from Lebanon, my bride—with me from Lebanon!Descend from the peak of Amana,from the summit of Senir and Hermon,from the dens of the lions,from the mountains of the leopards.

You have captured my heart, my sister, my bride.You have captured my heart with one glance of your eyes,with one jewel of your necklace.

How delightful your love is, my sister, my bride.Your love is much better than wine,and the fragrance of your perfume than any balsam.

Your lips drip sweetness like the honeycomb, my bride.Honey and milk are under your tongue.The fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.

My sister, my bride, you are a locked garden—a locked garden and a sealed spring.

M I have come to my garden—my sister, my bride.I gather my myrrh with my spices.I eat my honeycomb with my honey.I drink my wine with my milk.N Eat, friends!Drink, be intoxicated with love!

(The Chorus)“Who is this coming up from the wildernessLeaning upon her beloved?”

(The Chorus)“We have a little sisterAnd she has no breasts.What shall we do for our sisterOn the day when she is spoken for [in marriage]?

(The Shulammite Bride)“Hurry, my beloved and come quickly,Like a gazelle or a young stag [taking me home]On the mountains of spices.”
