6 Don't stare at mejust because the sunhas darkened my skin.My brothers were angry with me;they made me work in the vineyard,and so I neglectedmy complexion.Don't let the other shepherdsthink badly of me.
7 I'm not one of those womenwho shamelessly followafter shepherds.My darling, I love you!Where do you feed your sheepand let them rest at midday?
8 My dearest, if you don't know,just follow the pathof the sheep.Then feed your young goatsnear the shepherds' tents.
9 You move as gracefullyas the pony that leadsthe chariot of the king.
10 Earrings add to your beauty,and you wear a necklaceof precious stones.
11 Let's make you some jewelleryof gold, woven with silver.
12 My king, while youwere on your couch,my love was a magic charm.
