1. The song of songs, which is Solomon's.
2. Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; For thy love is better than wine.
3. Thine ointments savour sweetly; Thy name is an ointment poured forth: Therefore do the virgins love thee.
4. Draw me, we will run after thee! --The king hath brought me into his chambers--We will be glad and rejoice in thee, We will remember thy love more than wine. They love thee uprightly.
5. I am black, but comely, daughters of Jerusalem, As the tents of Kedar, As the curtains of Solomon.
6. Look not upon me, because I am black; Because the sun hath looked upon me. My mother's children were angry with me: They made me keeper of the vineyards; Mine own vineyard have I not kept.
7. Tell me, thou whom my soul loveth, Where thou feedest thy flock, Where thou makest it to rest at noon; For why should I be as one veiled Beside the flocks of thy companions?
