Song of Solomon 1:3-5

Revised Standard Version

³    your anointing oils are fragrant,
your name is oil poured out;
    therefore the maidens love you.
⁴Draw me after you, let us make haste.
    The king has brought me into his chambers.
We will exult and rejoice in you;
    we will extol your love more than wine;
    rightly do they love you.

⁵I am very dark, but comely,
O daughters of Jerusalem,
like the tents of Kedar,
like the curtains of Solomon.
