As a lily among the thorns
so is my love among the daughters;
As an apple tree among the trees of the wood
so is my love among the sons.
Behold thou dost shine, my love,
thine eyes are as doves behind the veil.
כְּשׁוֹשַׁנָה בֵּין הַחוֹחִים
כֵּן רַעְיָתִי בֵּין הַבָּנוֹת
כְּתָפּוּחַ בְּעַצֵי הַיַעַר
כֵּן דוֹדִי בֵּין הַבָּנִים
הִנָךְ יָפָה רַעְיָתִי
עֵינַיִךְ יוֹנִים מִבַּעַד לְצַמָתֵךְ
Kshoshanàh béin hakhokhim
kén ra‘yàti béin habànot;
ketapuakh be‘atséi haya‘ar
kén dodi béin habànim.
Hinàch yàfàh ra‘yàti,
‘éinayich yonim miba‘ad letsamàtéch.
