לְחָיָו֙ כַּעֲרוּגַ֣ת הַבֹּ֔שֶׂם מִגְדְּל֖וֹת מֶרְקָחִ֑ים שִׂפְתוֹתָיו֙ שֽׁוֹשַׁנִּ֔ים נֹטְפ֖וֹת מ֥וֹר עֹבֵֽר׃
Seine Wangen wie ein würziges Beet, wie Türme von Wohlgerüchen, seine Lippen wie Rosen, wie fließende Myrrhe traufelnd.
Shabbat
Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi said: What does it mean, that which is written: (Song of Songs 5:13) "His cheeks are beds of spices." Every single utterance that came from the mouth of the Holy One, Blessed Be He, the whole world is filled with spices. And since the first utterance filled it, where did the second utterance go? The Holy One, Blessed Be He, drew out the wind from his treasures and brought every [spice], one by one, as it is stated: (Song of Songs 5:13) "His lips are like lilies. They drip flowing myrrh." Do not read "shoshanim" [lilies], rather "sheshonim" [repeat].
