The Daughters of Jerusalem The Shulamite The Daughters of Jerusalem The Shulamite
5 I am dark, but lovely,
O daughters of Jerusalem,
Like the tents of Kedar,
Like the curtains of Solomon.
O daughters of Jerusalem,
Like the tents of Kedar,
Like the curtains of Solomon.
6 Do not look upon me, because I am dark,
Because the sun has1 tanned me.
My mother’s sons were angry with me;
They made me the keeper of the vineyards,
But my own avineyard I have not kept.
Because the sun has1 tanned me.
My mother’s sons were angry with me;
They made me the keeper of the vineyards,
But my own avineyard I have not kept.
(To Her Beloved)
7 Tell me, O you whom I love,
Where you feed your flock,
Where you make it rest at noon.
For why should I be as one who1 veils herself
By the flocks of your companions?
Where you feed your flock,
Where you make it rest at noon.
For why should I be as one who1 veils herself
By the flocks of your companions?
The Beloved
8 If you do not know, aO fairest among women,
1Follow in the footsteps of the flock,
And feed your little goats
Beside the shepherds’ tents.
1Follow in the footsteps of the flock,
And feed your little goats
Beside the shepherds’ tents.
