Song of Solomon 3
1 On my bed at night I sought the one I love; I sought him, but did not find him.
Teo am-pandriako nony alina dia mazàna nitady ilay tian’ ny fanahiko aho; Nitady azy aho, fa tsy nahita azy.
2 I will arise now and go about the city, through the streets and squares. I will seek the one I love. So I sought him but did not find him.
Dia hoy izaho: Hifoha aho ka handehandeha eo an-tanàna, dia eny an-dalambe sy eny an-kalalahana, hitady ilay tian’ ny fanahiko eny, nitady azy aho, nefa tsy nahita azy.
3 I encountered the watchmen on their rounds of the city: “Have you seen the one I love?”
Hitan’ ny antily izay mandehandeha eny an-tanàna aho; Dia hoy izaho: Sao mba hitanareo lahy ilay tian’ ny fanahiko iny?
4 I had just passed them when I found the one I love. I held him and would not let go until I had brought him to my mother’s house, to the chamber of the one who conceived me.
Nony vao nandalo ireo vetivety foana aho, dia hitako ilay tian’ ny fanahiko, ka nohazoniko izy, fa tsy navelako handeha, mandra-pitondrako azy ho any an-tranon’ ineny, dia any amin’ ny efi-tranon’ ilay niteraka ahy.
5 O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure you by the gazelles and does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until the time is right.
Mampianiana anareo amin’ ny gazela na amin’ ny dieravavy any an-tsaha aho, ry zanakavavin’ i Jerosalema; Aza manaitra na mamoha ny fitiavana, raha tsy efa sitrapony.
6 Who is this coming up from the wilderness like a column of smoke, scented with myrrh and frankincense from all the spices of the merchant?
Iza moa iry vehivavy miakatra avy any an-efitra, tahaka ny setroka mitankosina, sady tsara fofona amin’ ny miora sy ny ditin-kazo mani-pofona mbamin’ ny vovoka manitra samy hafa entin’ ny mpandranto?
7 Behold, it is Solomon’s carriage, escorted by sixty of the mightiest men of Israel.
Indro ny filanjan’ i Solomona! Lehilahy enim-polo, mahery avokoa, avy amin’ ny lehilahy mahery amin’ ny Isiraely, no manotrona azy.
8 All are skilled with the sword, experienced in warfare. Each has his sword at his side prepared for the terror of the night.
An-tsabatra avokoa izy rehetra sady mahay miady, samy mitondra ny sabany eo am-balahany avy noho ny tahotra amin’ ny alina.
9 King Solomon has made his carriage out of the timber of Lebanon.
Nanao filanjana ho azy Solomona mpanjaka tamin’ ny hazo avy any Libanona:
10 He has made its posts of silver, its base of gold, its seat of purple fabric. Its interior is inlaid with love by the daughters of Jerusalem.
Volafotsy no nataony andriny, ary volamena ny fiankinana, volomparasy ny ondany, ny ao anatiny voaravaka amin’ ny fanomezam-pitiavana avy tamin’ ny zanakavavin’ i Jerosalema.
11 Come out, O daughters of Zion, and gaze at King Solomon, wearing the crown his mother bestowed on the day of his wedding— the day of his heart’s rejoicing.
Mivoaha, ry zanakavavin’ i Ziona, ka mijere an’ i Solomona mpanjaka, misatroka ilay satro-boninahitra nasatro-dreniny azy tamin’ ny andro nampakarany vady, dia tamin’ ny andro nifalian’ ny fony.
