1 Cantar de los cantares de Salomón. 2 Bésame, bésame con tu boca una y otra vez, porque tu amor es más dulce que el vino. 3 Me encanta cómo hueles con los aceites perfumados que utilizas. Tienes un gran renombre—se extiende como el aceite perfumado derramado. No es de extrañar que todas las jóvenes te adoren. 4 ¡Tómame de la mano, corramos! (El rey me ha llevado a su dormitorio). Seamos felices juntos y encontremos placer en tu amor. Tu amor es mucho mejor que el vino. ¡Las mujeres tienen razón en adorarte tanto! 5 Soy negra, pero soy hermosa, mujeres de Jerusalén, como las tiendas de Cedar, como las cortinas de Salomón. 6 No me desprecies porque soy negra, porque el sol me ha quemado. Mis hermanos se enojaron conmigo y me obligaron a cuidar las viñas, y no pude cuidar mi propia viña. 7 Mi amor, por favor, dime a dónde vas a llevar tu rebaño. ¿Dónde los harás descansar al mediodía? Porque ¿por qué tengo que llevar un velo mientras te busco entre los rebaños de tus compañeros? 8 Si realmente no lo sabes, tú que eres más hermosa que cualquier otra mujer, sigue las huellas de mi rebaño, y deja que tus cabras pasten cerca de las tiendas de los pastores. 9 Querida, para mí eres como una yegua entre los caballos del Faraón que tiran de sus carros, 10 Tus hermosas mejillas adornadas con adornos, tu cuello con cordones de joyas. 11 Hagamos para ti unos adornos de oro con incrustaciones de plata. 12 Mientras el rey estaba tumbado en su lecho, mi perfume de nardo desprendía su fragancia. 13 Mi amor es como una funda de mirra, tumbada toda la noche entre mis pechos. 14 Mi amor es como un ramo de flores de henna fragantes en los viñedos de Engedi. 15 ¡Mira qué hermosa eres, querida, qué hermosa! Tus ojos son suaves como palomas. 16 Y tú, mi amor, eres tan guapo, ¡qué encantador eres! La hierba verde es nuestra cama, 17 con cedros como vigas para nuestra “casa”, y árboles de pino para las vigas.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
An example of this is that passage in the Song of Solomon, "I am black, but comely, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon." For it is not said, I was black as the tents of Kedar, but am now comely as the curtains of Solomon.

For now meanwhile thou standest outside the door: but God grant that you all may say, The King hath brought me into His chamber.

So then this Bridegroom, "fair in beauty above the children of men," became deformed that He might make His Spouse fair to whom it is said, "O thou beauteous among women," of whom it is said, "Who is this that cometh up, whitened" with the brightness of light, not the colouring of falsehood!

… with you, all Beauteous as He was, prayed for you; "Father," saith He, "forgive them, for they know not what they do." For if He were without comeliness, how is it that she loveth Him, who saith, "Tell me, O Thou whom my soul loveth"? How is it that she loveth Him?
