* The Song of Songs , which is by Solomon . * O that he would kiss me with one of the kisses of his mouth ! For thy love is better than wine . * Because of the savor of thy precious perfumes , (Thy name is like fragrant oil poured forth ,) Therefore do the virgins love thee . * Draw me after thee ; let us run ! The king hath led me to his chambers ! We will be glad and rejoice in thee ; We will praise thy love more than wine . Justly do they love thee ! * I am black , but comely , O ye daughters of Jerusalem , As the tents of Kedar , as the curtains of Solomon . * Gaze not upon me because I am black , Because the sun hath looked upon me ! My mother ’s sons were angry with me ; They made me keeper of the vineyards ; My vineyard , my own , have I not kept . * Tell me , thou whom my soul loveth , where thou feedest thy flock , Where thou leadest it to rest at noon ; For why should I be like a veiled one by the flocks of thy companions ? * If thou know not , O thou fairest among women , Trace thou thy way by the tracks of the flock , And feed thy kids beside the shepherds ’ tents ! * To the horses in the chariots of Pharaoh Do I compare thee , my love ! * Comely are thy cheeks with rows of jewels , Thy neck with strings of pearls . * Golden chains will we make for thee , With studs of silver . * While the king reclineth at his table , My spikenard sendeth forth its fragrance . * A bunch of myrrh is my beloved to me ; He shall abide between my breasts . * My beloved is to me a cluster of henna –flowers From the gardens of Engedi . * Behold , thou art fair , my love ; behold , thou art fair ! Thine eyes are doves . * Behold , thou art fair , my beloved , yea , lovely ; And green is our bed . * The cedars are the beams of our house , And its roof the cypresses .
