ગુજરાતીગીતોનું ગીત ૮:૭
ઘણાં પાણીનો પ્રવાહ પ્રેમને હોલવી શકે નહિ, જળપ્રલયનાં પાણી એને ખેંચી જતાં નથી. જે કોઈ વ્યક્તિ પ્રેમને માટે પોતાની ઘરની બધી સંપત્તિ આપી દે, તોપણ તેને લોકો ધિક્કારે છે.
हिन्दीश्रेष्ठगीत ८:७
पानी की बाढ़ से भी प्रेम नहीं बुझ सकता, और न महानदों से डूब सकता है। यदि कोई अपने घर की सारी सम्पत्ति प्रेम के बदले दे दे तो भी वह अत्यन्त तुच्छ ठहरेगी। वधू का भाई

In context

5Who is this who comes up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? Under the apple tree I awakened you. There your mother conceived you. There she was in labor and bore you.

6Set me as a seal on your heart, as a seal on your arm; for love is strong as death. Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a very flame of the LORD.

7Many waters can’t quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love, he would be utterly scorned.

8We have a little sister. She has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister in the day when she is to be spoken for?

9If she is a wall, we will build on her a turret of silver. If she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
