The most beautiful of songs, by Solomon. |
2
|
Your lips cover me with kisses; your love is better than wine. |
3
|
There is a fragrance about you; the sound of your name recalls it. No woman could keep from loving you. |
4
|
Take me with you, and we'll run away; be my king and take me to your room. We will be happy together, drink deep, and lose ourselves in love. No wonder all women love you! |
5
|
Women of Jerusalem, I am dark but beautiful, dark as the desert tents of Kedar, but beautiful as the draperies in Solomon's palace. |
6
|
Don't look down on me because of my color, because the sun has tanned me. My brothers were angry with me and made me work in the vineyard. I had no time to care for myself. |
7
|
Tell me, my love, Where will you lead your flock to graze? Where will they rest from the noonday sun? Why should I need to look for you among the flocks of the other shepherds? |
8
|
Don't you know the place, loveliest of women? Go and follow the flock; find pasture for your goats near the tents of the shepherds. |
9
|
You, my love, excite men as a mare excites the stallions of Pharaoh's chariots. |
10
|
Your hair is beautiful upon your cheeks and falls along your neck like jewels. |
11
|
But we will make for you a chain of gold with ornaments of silver. |
12
|
My king was lying on his couch, and my perfume filled the air with fragrance. |
13
|
My lover has the scent of myrrh as he lies upon my breasts. |
14
|
My lover is like the wild flowers that bloom in the vineyards at Engedi. |
15
|
How beautiful you are, my love; how your eyes shine with love! |
16
|
How handsome you are, my dearest; how you delight me! The green grass will be our bed; |
17
|
the cedars will be the beams of our house, and the cypress trees the ceiling. |
