How fragrant your cologne; your name is like its spreading fragrance. No wonder all the young women love you! |

Take me with you; come, let's run! The king has brought me into his bedroom. Young Women of Jerusalem How happy we are for you, O king. We praise your love even more than wine. Young Woman How right they are to adore you. |

I am dark but beautiful, O women of Jerusalem-- dark as the tents of Kedar, dark as the curtains of Solomon's tents. |

Don't stare at me because I am dark-- the sun has darkened my skin. My brothers were angry with me; they forced me to care for their vineyards, so I couldn't care for myself-- my own vineyard. |

Tell me, my love, where are you leading your flock today? Where will you rest your sheep at noon? For why should I wander like a prostitute among your friends and their flocks? Young Man |

If you don't know, O most beautiful woman, follow the trail of my flock, and graze your young goats by the shepherds' tents. |

We will make for you earrings of gold and beads of silver. Young Woman |

The king is lying on his couch, enchanted by the fragrance of my perfume. |

You are so handsome, my love, pleasing beyond words! The soft grass is our bed; |
