Song of Solomon 1:3-5

International Children’s Bible

³ The smell of your perfume is pleasant.
    Your name is pleasant like expensive perfume!
    That’s why the young women love you.
⁴ Take me with you; let’s run.
    The king takes me into his rooms.

We will rejoice and be happy with you.
    We praise your love more than wine.

With good reason, the young women love you, my lover.
⁵ I’m dark but lovely,
    women of Jerusalem.
    I’m dark like the tents of Kedar,
    like the curtains of Solomon.
