My favorite way to live is loving you

My Beloved and My Queen

You have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes,

my love, my bride—my joy, my prize.

I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine;

your beauty holds me helpless—every time.

You are altogether beautiful, my love; there is no flaw in you;

your lips drip nectar—sweet—so true.

Your oils are fragrant—your perfume drives me wild,

and I unravel when I see you smile.

Many waters cannot quench love—no flood can drown it through;

it cannot cool this thirst I carry—only you.

So let my life be lavish love, steady and true—

my favorite way to live is loving you.
