Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Noah: The translation is correct. The problem is that the phrase sounds stilted and detached in Hebrew. In order to say something with warmth and intimacy, I suggest some short poetic pfrase, e.g., 'Ani le-dodi ve-dodi li" I am my beloved's and he is mine." ,"
