'Darling' in the Bible

“To me, my darling, you are likeMy mare among the chariots of Pharaoh.

“How beautiful you are, my darling,How beautiful you are!Your eyes are like doves.”

“Like a lily among the thorns,So is my darling among the maidens.”

“My beloved responded and said to me,‘Arise, my darling, my beautiful one,And come along.

‘The fig tree has ripened its figs,And the vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance.Arise, my darling, my beautiful one,And come along!’”

“How beautiful you are, my darling,How beautiful you are!Your eyes are like doves behind your veil;Your hair is like a flock of goatsThat have descended from Mount Gilead.

“You are altogether beautiful, my darling,And there is no blemish in you.

“I was asleep but my heart was awake.A voice! My beloved was knocking:‘Open to me, my sister, my darling,My dove, my perfect one!For my head is drenched with dew,My locks with the damp of the night.’

“You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling,As lovely as Jerusalem,As awesome as an army with banners.
