Song of Solomon 7:8-10

New Living Translation

⁸ I said, “I will climb the palm tree
    and take hold of its fruit.”
May your breasts be like grape clusters,
    and the fragrance of your breath like apples.
⁹ May your kisses be as exciting as the best wine—

Yes, wine that goes down smoothly for my lover,
    flowing gently over lips and teeth.^[a]
10 I am my lover’s,
    and he claims me as his own.
