Your (A)oils have a pleasing fragrance,
Your (B)name is like [a]purified oil;
Therefore the [b](C)young women love you.
Draw me after you and let’s run together!
The (D)king has brought me into his chambers.”

The Chorus

“We will rejoice in you and be joyful;
We will praise your (E)love more than wine.
Rightly do they love you.”

The Bride

“I am black and (F)beautiful,
You (G)daughters of Jerusalem,
Like the (H)tents of (I)Kedar,
Like the curtains of Solomon.
