Thou Art Fair My Love

As the Lilly among thorns, so is love among humans

As the apple tree among the trees of the wood

So is love among earth treasures, a fountain sealed

If thou know not, O thou fairest among all things

Many glasses of water cannot quench love, neither the flood drown it

Love is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand

Love is unbiased, true to the soul and mind

No iota of deceit, so pure like a plain sheet

Behold thou art fair, my love, behold thou art fair

I have compared thee to the company of Lillies

And thy neck to fine lines like a thread of scarlet

Beloved thou art fair, oh my love, thou art fair

With strength so mighty like graphene and eyes so precious

My beloved is mine and I am his, joined steadfastly
