# My dove
The Israelites considered doves beautiful birds with pleasant voices. The man thinks the woman's face and voice are beautiful. If calling a woman a "dove" would be offensive, you could leave out the metaphor. Alternate translation: "My beautiful woman" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
# the clefts
large cracks in the side of mountain rocks large enough for people to hide in
# the mountain crags
"the steep rocks on the sides of the mountains"
# your face
Some versions translate this as "your appearance" or "your form" or "what you look like."
