Lyrics

Beloved
music written by Bobolina, lyrics are taken from Song of Songs/Solomon / Das Hohelied Salomos


dark am I
yet lovely
oh daughters of Jerusalem
dark like the tents of Kedar
like the tent curtains of Salomon
do not stare at me
because I'm dark
darkened by the sun
darkened by the sun
*
my mother's sons
were angry with me
and made me take care
of the wineyard
my own wineyard I have neglected
tell me you whom I love
where you graze your flock
and where you rest your sheep at midday
why should I be like a veiled woman?
