We have a little sister.
She has no breasts.
What shall we do for our sister
in the day when she is to be spoken for?
We have a little sister.
She has no breasts.
What shall we do for our sister
in the day when she is to be spoken for?
Song of Solomon 8:5–11
Who is this who comes up from the wilderness,
leaning on her beloved?
Under the apple tree I awakened you.
There your mother conceived you.
There she was in labor and bore you.
Set me as a seal on your heart,
as a seal on your arm;
for love is strong as death.
Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol.
Its flashes are flashes of fire,
a very flame of the LORD.
Many waters can’t quench love,
neither can floods drown it.
If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love,
he would be utterly scorned.
We have a little sister.
She has no breasts.
What shall we do for our sister
in the day when she is to be spoken for?
If she is a wall,
we will build on her a turret of silver.
If she is a door,
we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
I am a wall, and my breasts like towers,
then I was in his eyes like one who found peace.
