SOS-1:1  The song of songs, which [is] Solomon's.

SOS-1:2  Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy

love [is]

better than wine.

SOS-1:3  Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name

[is as] ointment

poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.

SOS-1:4  Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought

me into his

chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember

thy love more

than wine: the upright love thee.

SOS-1:5  I [am] black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem,

as the tents

of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.

SOS-1:6  Look not upon me, because I [am] black, because the sun

hath looked

upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me

the keeper of

the vineyards; [but] mine own vineyard have I not kept.

SOS-1:7  Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest,

 where thou

makest [thy flock] to rest at noon: for why should I be as one

that turneth

aside by the flocks of thy companions?

SOS-1:8  If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy

way forth by the

footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds'

tents.

SOS-1:9  I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses

in Pharaoh's

chariots.

SOS-1:10  Thy cheeks are comely with rows [of jewels], thy neck

with chains

[of gold].

SOS-1:11  We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.

SOS-1:12  While the king [sitteth] at his table, my spikenard

sendeth forth

the smell thereof.

SOS-1:13  A bundle of myrrh [is] my wellbeloved unto me; he

shall lie all

night betwixt my breasts.

SOS-1:14  My beloved [is] unto me [as] a cluster of camphire in

the vineyards

of Engedi.

SOS-1:15  Behold, thou [art] fair, my love; behold, thou [art]

fair; thou

[hast] doves' eyes.

SOS-1:16  Behold, thou [art] fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant:

also our bed

[is] green.

SOS-1:17  The beams of our house [are] cedar, [and] our rafters

of fir.
