My darling,[a] my bride, you excite me!
    You have stolen my heart with just one quick look from your eyes,
    with just one of the jewels from your necklace.
10 Your love is so beautiful, my darling, my bride!
    Your love is better than wine.
The smell of your perfume
    is better than any kind of spice!
11 My bride, your lips drip honey.
    Honey and milk are under your tongue.
Your clothes smell as sweet as perfume.[b]
