5
I am very dark, but 1lovely, O 2daughters of Jerusalem, like 3the tents of 4Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.
6
Do not gaze at me because I am dark, because the sun has looked upon me. My 5mother’s sons were angry with me; they made me 6keeper of 7the vineyards, but 8my own vineyard I have not kept!
7
Tell me, you 9whom my soul loves, where you 10pasture your flock, where you make it 11lie down at noon; for why should I be like one who veils herself beside the flocks of your 12companions?

Cantares de Salomâo 1:5
Eu sou morena, mas formosa, ó filhas de Jerusalém, como as tendas de Quedar, como as cortinas de Salomão.
