Song of Solomon 8:3 in Context — Song of Solomon 8

1 ¡OH quién te me diese como hermano que mamó los pechos de mi madre; [de modo] que te halle yo fuera, y te bese, y no me menosprecien!

2 Yo te llevaría, te metiera en casa de mi madre: tú me enseñarías, y yo te hiciera beber vino adobado del mosto de mis granadas.

3 Su izquierda [esté] debajo de mi cabeza, y su derecha me abrace.

4 Conjúroos, oh doncellas de Jerusalem, que no despertéis, ni hagáis velar al amor, hasta que quiera.

5 ¿Quién es ésta que sube del desierto, recostada sobre su amado? Debajo de un manzano te desperté: allí tuvo tu madre dolores, allí tuvo dolores la que te parió.
