{{LinkText|Nigra sum sed formosa}}
Nigra sum, sed formosa filiae Jerusalem,<br>
sicut tabernacula Cedar, sicut pelles Salomonis.<br>
Nolite me considerare quod fusca sim,<br>
quia decoloravit me sol.<br>
Filii matris meae pugnaverunt contra me,<br>
posuerunt me custodem in vineis.
 
{{Translation|English}}
<i>
I am black but beautiful, O ye daughters of Jerusalem,<br>
as the tents of Cedar, as the curtains of Solomon.<br>
Do not consider me that I am brown,<br>
because the sun hath altered my colour:<br>
the sons of my mother have fought against me,<br>
they have made me the keeper in the vineyards.
