Dark I Am Yet Lovely [dublin Sessions] Lyrics - Theology - Sinead Oconnor

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 you daughters of Jerusalem 

Where is my love? Oh tell me have you 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 you 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 you 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
