Dark I Am Yet Lovely (Dublin Sessions)

Dark I am yet lovely as tents of Kedar As the pavilions of Solomon either Don't hate me because the sun has darkened me All my mother's sons were so angry with me They made me watch the vineyards My own things I did not guard On my bed at night I sought whom my soul loves Oh I sought I sought but I found him not So I ask U daughters of Jerusalem Where is my love? Oh tell me have U seen him? Majestic as Lebanon stately as cedars His mouth so delicious his fragrance so pleases Such is my beloved such is my darling And if U see him say my heart is pining For the kisses of his mouth and his flavours Oh the king had brought me into his chambers Say I delight in his love Say he's the one my soul was Vast floods can't quench love no matter what love did Rivers can't drown love no matter where love's hid So when U do find him out Bring him to my mother's house And into the chamber of her who conceived me Then will he know me and then will he see me Tell him that love isn't done Tell him don't leave me alone
