Song of Solomon 1:3-5
Lexham English Bible

3 As fragrance, your perfumes[a] are delightful;[b]
    your name is poured out perfume;[c]
        therefore young women love you.
4 Draw me after you, let us run!
    May the king bring me into his chambers![d]
Let us be joyful and let us rejoice in you;
    let us extol your love more than wine.
        Rightly do they love you!

Maiden’s Self-Description

5 I am black but beautiful,[e] O maidens of Jerusalem,[f]
    like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.
