The words of this print, “Ani l’dodi v’dodi li” mean “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine.” They come from Shir Hashirim (The Song of Songs), which is filled with words of adoration and affection between man and woman, God and Israel. In making this statement of mutual love, the author of Shir Hashirim refutes the statement in an earlier book of Tanakh (The Bible), that "[a woman’s] desire shall be exclusively for her husband, and he shall rule over [her]" (Genesis 3:16). Apparently the author of Shir Hashirim knew the love of equals, the love of beloveds.

This print is a meaningful gift for celebrating engagement, marriage and anniversaries.
It looks beautiful on its own, or I can personalize the print with the couple's names (in Hebrew or English) and their engagement or wedding date. Please send me this info by convo, and let me know if you want the names and date written in Hebrew or English letters.
