My Solomon

My Solomon, (1:1-2) You're so affectionate; Draw me to Yourself With the kisses of Your mouth. Dearest King, (1:3-4) The virgins all love You. But I've been brought forth To enter into Your chambers now. Fairest One, (1:5) I'm black in my own eyes But comely in Your sight. Why, I'll never understand. |
You're a cluster of henna flowers to me, Blooming in the vineyards of Engedi. |

My Shulammite, (1:1) This is the Song of Songs, Which belongs to Me. I share it all with you—So come away now! Country girl, (1:9) Fairest of the fair, My intimate friend, You know what's in my heart. Little mare, (1:11) We've worked in your crown, Lovely golden braids, Filled with studs of silver. |
You're a flower among thorns to Me Among the daughters you are My lily. |
|
(Bridge) So as the winter trials start, And when idleness frosts my heart My beloved says to me, Come away, I'll come away. |

My Belov'd, (1:13) Hold me in Your arms, Lie between my breasts. You're beautiful, my love. O My dove, (1:15-16) You're beautiful to Me! Oh, you are beautiful! Beautiful, indeed. Mingled now, (1:16-17) Indeed our bed is green. We've found our place of rest, Our mutual abode. |
Here I always will give You my love (7:12) O come quickly, make haste my Belov'd. (8:14) |

Draw me to Yourself, wiith the kisses of Your mouth.
