Hebrew Wedding Vows
I am trying to find out how this would be translated into Hebrew for my fiance's wedding band. It is from Song of Songs, 4:3. If anyone could help me out with how it is written, as well as how it is pronounced, I would be greatly indebted!!!

It is from Songs of songs 3:4 and not 4:3 as you mentioned.

Slight changes to Gad's answer
In my support comment above, I dropped the first word, which corresponds to "when" which is not in the source extract. Also, I dropped the punctuation, which makes sense in the entire sentence but not in the extract.

As for the pronunciation, here is crude transliteration: "matzati et sh-ahava nafshi". If you listen to the music clip in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gs3RnxIVosc you can hear this starting second 1:46 (right after the pause and the prefix "ad she".
