1:3Your anointing oils have a pleasant fragrance; / Your name is like ointment poured forth; / Therefore the virgins love you. Compare
1:4Draw me; we will run after you - The king has brought me into his chambers - / We will be glad and rejoice in you; / We will extol your love more than wine. / Rightly do they love you. Compare
1:5I am black but lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, / Like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon. Compare

1:7Tell me, you whom my soul loves, Where do you pasture your flock? / Where do you make it lie down at noon? / For why should I be like one who is veiled / Beside the flocks of your companions? Compare
1:8If you yourself do not know, / You fairest among women, / Go forth on the footsteps of the flock, / And pasture your young goats / By the shepherds' tents. Compare
1:9I compare you, my love, / To a mare among Pharaoh's chariots. Compare
1:10Your cheeks are lovely with plaits of ornaments, / Your neck with strings of jewels. Compare

2:1I am a rose of Sharon, / A lily of the valleys. Compare
2:2As a lily among thorns, / So is my love among the daughters. Compare

2:15Catch the foxes for us, / The little foxes, / That ruin the vineyards / While our vineyards are in blossom. Compare
2:16My beloved is mine, and I am his; / He pastures his flock among the lilies. Compare
2:17Until the day dawns and the shadows flee away, / Turn, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young hart / On the mountains of Bether. Compare
3:1On my bed night after night / I sought him whom my soul loves; / I sought him, but found him not. Compare
3:2I will rise now and go about in the city; / In the streets and in the squares / I will seek him whom my soul loves. / I sought him, but found him not. Compare
3:3The watchmen who go about in the city found me - / Have you seen him whom my soul loves? Compare
