In
the Style of Salomon
Wanderlino
Arruda
More
magnificent than the dawn,
you are as beautiful as Rachel,
on a rare day of peace
in lovely Jerusalem.
Intriguing
are your steps,
and green is the brightness
behind your veil, the scarlet
blush.
Your beauty is born and reborn
among the young trees of the
valley,
where grapes sprout and blossom.
I
imagine myself in a coach
of dreams,
while a humming bird contemplates
you,
oh! girl of Shulam, unimitable,
mistress of Arabian dance.
Your
feet in golden sandals,
Oh! daughter of the prince,
magnificence is reflected
in your hips.
Brightness curves your loins,
your navel, O passion of the
emerald valley,
is a never drying goblet
the highest point of roses
in love,
everlasting love!
