your mother conceived you,
there you were born.
In that very place, I awakened you.
6 Bind me as a seal upon your heart,
a sign upon your arm,
for love is as fierce as death,
its jealousy bitter as the grave.
Even its sparks are a raging fire,
a devouring flame.
7 Great seas cannot extinguish love,
no river can sweep it away.
If a man tried to buy love
with all the wealth of his house,
he would be despised.
[Song of Songs 8:5-7]
