From  the Sumer Song of Songs

MAN OF MY HEART
Man of my heart, my beloved man,

your allure is a sweet thing, as sweet as honey.
Man of my heart, my beloved man,
your allure is a sweet thing, as sweet as honey.

 You have captivated me,
of my own free will I will come to you.
Lad, let me flee with you—into the bedroom.

Man, let me do the sweetest things to you.
My precious sweet, let me bring you honey.
In the bedchamber dripping with honey
let us enjoy over and over your allure, the sweet thing.
Lad, let me do the sweetest things to you.
My precious sweet, let me bring you honey.

My lord and god, my lord and guardian angel,
my Cu-Suen who cheers Enlil's heart,
if only you would handle your sweet place,
if only you would grasp your place that is sweet as honey.

 

MY HONEY SWEET
My dearest, my dearest, my dearest, my darling,

my darling, my honey of her own mother,
my sappy vine, my honey-sweet,
my honey-mouthed of her mother!

The speaking of your mouth is pleasant to me,
my honey-mouthed of her mother.

 

THE  HONEY SWEET MAN

The honey-sweet man, the honey-sweet man,
was doing sweet things to me!
My lord, the honey-sweet man, the godly one,
my darling of his mother,
his hands honey sweet, his feet honeying,
was doing sweet things to me!

His limbs being sweet, sweet honey,
he was doing sweet things to me!
O my one who of a sudden was doing sweet things
to the whole insides up to the navel,
my darling of his mother,
my desert-honey loins, darling of his mother,
you watered it - it being lettuce!

Inanna, the Sumer Love Goddess
