Song of Solomon 5:1
Showing verse 1 with surrounding context.
1
[He] My sister, my bride, I have entered my garden; I am gathering my myrrh and my spices; I am eating my honeycomb along with my honey; I am drinking my wine as well as my milk. [Chorus] Eat, friends, and drink, until you are drunk with love!
2
[She] I am asleep, but my heart is awake. Listen! I hear my darling knocking! [He] Open for me, my sister, my love, my dove, my flawless one! For my head is wet with dew, my hair with the moisture of the night.
3
[She] I've removed my coat; must I put it back on? I've washed my feet; must I dirty them again?
4
The man I love put his hand through the hole by the door-latch, and my heart began pounding at the thought of him.
