Original text and translations
Latin text 4:9 Vulnerasti cor meum, soror mea, sponsa: vulnerasti cor meum in uno oculorum tuorum et in uno crine colli tui. 4:10a Quam pulchrae sunt mammae tuae soror mea sponsa, 4:10b pulchriora sunt ubera tua vino et odor unguentorum tuorum super omnia aromata. 4:8a Veni de Libano sponsa, veni de Libano: veni coronaberis. |
English translation 4:9 Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister, my spouse: thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck. 4:10a How beautiful are thy breasts, my sister, my spouse! 4:10b thy breasts are more beautiful than wine, and the sweet smell of thy ointments above all aromatical spices. 4:8a Come from Libanus, my spouse, come from Libanus, come: thou shalt be crowned. |
