# Song of Solomon 1
[[Ecclesiastes 12|←]] • [[Song of Solomon 2|→]]
---
### 1
The song of songs, which Solomon's.
### 2
Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love better than wine.
### 3
Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.
### 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.
### 5
I black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
### 6
Look not upon me, because I black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; mine own vineyard have I not kept.
### 7
Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?
### 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.
### 9
I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaoh's chariots.
### 10
Thy cheeks are comely with rows thy neck with chains
### 11
We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.
### 12
While the king at his table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof.
### 13
A bundle of myrrh my wellbeloved unto me; he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts.
### 14
My beloved unto me a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of En-gedi.
### 15
Behold, thou fair, my love; behold, thou fair; thou doves' eyes.
### 16
Behold, thou fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our bed green.
### 17
The beams of our house cedar, our rafters of fir.
