1 Cantique des cantiques, de Salomon.
2 Qu’il me baise des baisers de sa bouche! Car ton amour vaut mieux que le vin,
3 Tes parfums ont une odeur suave; Ton nom est un parfum qui se répand; C’est pourquoi les jeunes filles t’aiment.
4 Entraîne-moi après toi! Nous courrons! Le roi m’introduit dans ses appartements… Nous nous égaierons, nous nous réjouirons à cause de toi; Nous célébrerons ton amour plus que le vin. C’est avec raison que l’on t’aime.
5 Je suis noire, mais je suis belle, filles de Jérusalem, Comme les tentes de Kédar, comme les pavillons de Salomon.
