For better
`are'
thy
loves
than wine.

kisses of his mouth !
For your
love
is
more
delightful
than wine.

fragrance `are'
thy
perfumes
good.

out
--
thy
name ,
Therefore
have
virgins
loved
thee!

fragrance of
your
perfume is

me :
after
thee
we
run,

brought
me into
his inner
chambers ,
We do
joy
and
rejoice in thee,
We mention
thy
loves
more than wine ,
Uprightly
they have
loved
thee!

with
you—let

Dark
`am'
I, and
comely
, daughters of Jerusalem, As
tents of Kedar, as
curtains of Solomon.
I am
dark
, yet
lovely
, O
daughters of Jerusalem, like
the
tents of Kedar, like
the
curtains of Solomon.
Fear
me
not ,
because I `
am '
very
dark, Because
the sun hath
scorched
me ,
The
sons
of
my mother
were angry with me ,
They made me keeper of the vineyards, My
vineyard
--
my own --
I have not
kept
.
Do
not stare
because I am dark, for
the sun has
gazed
upon
me .
My mother’s
sons
were angry with me ;
they made me a
keeper of the vineyards, but
my own vineyard
I have neglected
.
Declare
to
me, thou
whom
my
soul
hath
loved
, Where thou
delightest,
Where thou
liest
down
at noon,
For
why am
I as
one
veiled ,
By
the ranks
of thy
companions?
Tell
me, O
one
I
love
, where do
you
pasture
your
sheep?
Where do
you
rest
them
at midday?
Why should
I be
like
a
veiled woman
beside
the flocks
of your
companions?
If thou
knowest
not, O fair
among
women, Get
thee
forth
by
the traces
of the flock, And feed
thy
kids
by
the shepherds '
dwellings!
If you
do
not know
, O fairest
of
women, follow
the tracks
of the flock, and graze
your
young
goats
near
the tents
of
the
shepherds .
To
my
joyous
one
in
chariots
of
Pharaoh,
I have
compared
thee
, my friend
,
I compare
you
, my darling
, to
a
mare
among
Pharaoh’s
chariots.
Comely
have
been
thy
cheeks with garlands
, Thy
neck with chains
.
Your
cheeks are
beautiful
with ornaments
, your
neck with strings
of
jewels
.
Garlands
of
gold
we do
make for
thee
, With studs
of silver !
We will
make you
ornaments
of
gold
, studded
with beads
of silver .
While the king `is'
in
his circle
, My spikenard
hath
given
its fragrance.
While the king was
at
his table
, my perfume
spread
its fragrance.
A
bundle
of
myrrh
`is'
my beloved to me ,
Between my breasts it
lodgeth
.

cypress
`is'
my beloved to me ,
In the vineyards of En-Gedi !

Lo,
thou
`art'
fair
, my friend,

fair
, thine
eyes `
are '
doves !
How
beautiful
you
are
, my darling!
Oh
, how
very
beautiful!
Your
eyes are like
doves .
Lo,
thou
`art'
fair
, my love,
yea,
pleasant,
Yea
, our
couch
`
is '
green,
How
handsome
you
are
, my beloved!
Oh
, how
delightful!
The
soft
grass
is our
bed.
The beams of our houses
`
are '
cedars ,
Our rafters `
are '
firs ,
I
`am'
a
rose
of
Sharon,
a
lily
of
the
valleys!
The beams of our house
are cedars ;
our rafters are fragrant
firs .
