SET ME AS A SIGNET, MY LOVE

SET ME AS A SIGNET, MY LOVE!

Let the kisses of your mouth satisfy me

For your love is better than sweetest fresh honey

And your sweet scenting body fragrance my refined perfume

For your virgin name NSIDIBE the most precious ointment I seek for.

So shall I be glad and rejoice-been satisfied in your arms alone

Though not perfect am I, tanned to dark skin from the heat of eastern sun

Though many be sad over my love for you

Yet shall I see you, love you and cherish only you forever.

You are a fairest queen, my love, among million women

You are an angel among the galaxies-among the daughters of men

You are a shining star in utter dark path-lightening the path of fallen feet of men

You are refined apple of gold in the shining silver-lining-a precious charming eyes as of doves

Darling, as a dove in midst of birds on flight-

So is my love among the maidens on earth

As the apple tree among the trees of the woods-

So is my angel among the princesses-her fruit are pleasant to my taste  

When am in your twin arms-I feel your warmest embrace

Your love over me as a banner is untainted love-as pure as Crystal Sea

Flowing from the heaven’s dome to catch the cadence

Sustain me with your milk of tender care

Refresh me with your- ‘Twin Apple’- I am sick of your love

Your soothing voice drips of honey fresh from honeycomb

Your sonorous love-song stirs up my lonely heart

Your kindhearted love-song inspires and mends my broken spirit-

Always seek to return home to your ever waiting arms-

Where true emotions of pure heart envelop me.

Let me rise and return home to my beloved

For the rain is past-the winter is here

The lilies appear, the queen of the night scintillates with sweet smelling fragrance

Birds of love singing expecting our arrival to the garden of pure love

Your voice is sweet-rejoicing the soul

Your voice is lovely-pleasant to the ears

Your mouth is honey-coated-only for kingly kisses

Your perfectly figured feminine shape-enlivening the eyes of the heart.

O my love, you are beautiful more of angel!

Lovely as Lilly

Peaceful as dove

Sweet as honey

Among ten million stars and galaxies

Among thousand angels

Among hundreds of maidens-

You remain my one and only

How beautiful are your feet in sandals

Your bodily shape certain any garment-oh! My prince’s daughter!

The curves of your thighs rounded as of precious jewels

Your rounded adoring navel as of goblet-lacks no true freshness.

Your perfect waist like a plate-spinner’s tunnel

Your twin breast perfectly crafted as of ivory diamond

Your nose like pyramid made in Egypt

Your buttocks as of twin ivory towers

Your two straight legs as of earthly foundation pillars

Now understand why all men are held captive by your beauty

My desire is after you

 

Come on my darling wife, my heartthrob

Let’s go forth tonight to the garden of love

Let’s lodge in the country inn fathoming the wonders of nature

Let’s get up early to the vineyards

And see if the vines had budded

If the grape blossoms are open

And the pomegranates are in bloom-

There I’ll give you my love-

‘Cause you are fair and lovely.

I’ll lead you safely into my mother’s home-the place she occupies before

Will I give now to you, my love, my life!

Set me then as a signet upon your heart

As signet upon your arms

For love is stronger than death

Hatred stinks like the grave

It flames as of fire unquenchable

No ocean can quench it or any river washes or drown love

Nothing is compared to my love for you my dazzling angel

Nothing matters on earth now-but to love my Creator and You

Can I ever love another as this?

Nay, till death put us asunder………..
