Song 1:3      Song 1:5

Song of Solomon 1:4

Draw me (to you), we will run after you,
the king has brought me into his chamber [on the wedding night].
[The Hebrew word for love in verse 2, dod, probably comes from a verb meaning "to boil"; used of physical attraction and love—perhaps bubbling emotions, see Prov 7:18; Song 4:10; 7:12; Ezek. 16:8; 23:17.]
[Chorus:]
We [the woman, perhaps together with the daughters of Jerusalem, see verse 5] want to be happy and rejoice with (in) you,
we shall find your love (bubbling, passionate feelings) more fragrant than wine.
