1 The song of songs which is to Solomon. 2 He shall kiss me from the kisses of his mouth: for thy good breasts are above wine. 3 To the odor of the good ointments thy name shall be poured forth an ointment; for this, the maidens loved thee. 4 Draw me, we will run after thee: the king brought me to his chambers: we will exult and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy breasts above wine: the upright loved thee. 5 I am black and beautiful, O daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon. 6 Thou shalt not see me, I am black; the sun searched me: my mother's sons were angry with me; they set me to watch the vineyards; my vineyard I watched not for me. 7 Announce to me, thou whom my soul loved, where thou wilt feed, where thou wilt lie down at noon: wherefore shall I be as he covered by the herds of thy companions. 8 If thou shalt not know for thyself, O fair one among women, come forth for thyself at the heels of the flock, and feed thy kids by the shepherds tents. Song of Solomon 1:1-8, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
