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.
