10 [Ela] : Meu amado é radiante e rosado; ele se destaca entre dez mil.

11 Sua cabeça é [como] o mais fino ouro; seus cabelos são crespos, pretos como o corvo.

12 Seus olhos são como pombas junto às correntes de águas, lavados em leite, colocados como [joias] .

13 As laterais de seu rosto como um canteiro de especiarias, [como] caixas aromáticas; seus lábios são [como] lírios, que gotejam fragrante mirra.

14 Suas mãos são [como] anéis de ouro com pedras de crisólitos; seu abdome [como] o brilhante marfim, coberto de safiras.
