"Rise up my love, my fair one, and come away."-Song of Solomon 2:10 I am the shulamite maiden though I hide in the clefts of rock night shall take delight in me pressing for the sweetness betwixt my breasts morning shall call me forth sun shall cry for my kiss rain weep for the goblet of my round navel my beloved shall find me by the smell of pomegranate of wheat and lilies there is a balm in gilead that calls to me cries fetch me ripe smell of deep fruit loroco buds linden leaves still dripping honey stored in clay it calls to me I shall stroke it on his thighs weep as the prophet wept caress it on his belly where I rest my head stain it on his neck his neck that thickens as the tower of david thus so shall I tell him this sweet balm cried for you and I ministered you are my white and ruddy beloved and I am your young bride shulamite maiden _______ cantillation - Jewish liturgical chant [This message has been edited by The Lady (11-10-2006 12:36 PM).] |

Lady When you cantilate you surely cantilate. And that was a read worth reading.   |
