We will rejoice and delight in you; we will praise your love more than wine. It is only right that they adore you. I am dark, yet lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon. 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. Tell me, O one I love, where do you pasture your sheep?

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. I compare you, my darling, to a mare among Pharaoh’s chariots.

Oh, how delightful! The soft grass is our bed. The beams of our house are cedars; our rafters are fragrant firs.”

Let my beloved come into his garden and taste its choicest fruits.”
