# my beloved

This phrase refers to the man whom the woman loves. In some languages it may be more natural for her to refer to him as "my lover." See how you translated this in [Song of Songs 1:13](./12.md). Alternate translation: "my dear one" or "my lover"

# like a gazelle or a young stag

See how you translated this in [Song of Songs 2:9](../02/08.md).

# gazelle

a type of slender deer-like animal with long curved horns

# stag

an adult male deer

# the mountains of spices

"the mountains that have spices all over them." The woman uses this metaphor to invite the man to make love to her. See how the man uses the metaphor of a mountain of myrrh and a hill of frankincense in [Song of Songs 4:6](../04/06.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
