1 The Song of Songs, which is Solomon’s.
2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth!For your love is better than wine.
3 Your anointing oils are fragrant,your name is oil poured out;therefore the virgins love you.
4 Draw me after you, let us run.The king has brought me into his chambers. We will exult and rejoice in you;we will remember your love more than wine;rightly do they love you.
5 I am dark, but still lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem,like the tents of Kedar,like the curtains of Solomon.
6 Do not gaze at me, because I am dark,because the sun has looked upon me.My mother’s sons were angry with me;they made me the keeper of the vineyards,but my own vineyard I have not kept.
