< Song of Solomon 5 >

1 I am come into my garden, my sister, [my] spouse; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, beloved ones!
Aku datang ke kebunku, dinda, pengantinku, kukumpulkan mur dan rempah-rempahku; kumakan sarang lebah dan maduku, kuminum susu dan air anggurku.
2 I slept, but my heart was awake. The voice of my beloved! he knocketh: Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, mine undefiled; For my head is filled with dew, My locks with the drops of the night.
Aku tidur, namun hatiku berjaga. Dengarlah, kekasihku mengetuk pintu.
3 — I have put off my tunic, how should I put it on? I have washed my feet, how should I pollute them? —
Bajuku sudah kulepaskan; apakah akan kupakai lagi? Kakiku sudah kubasuh, apakah akan kukotori lagi?
4 My beloved put in his hand by the hole [of the door]; And my bowels yearned for him.
Berdebar-debar hatiku karena kekasihku memegang gagang pintu.
5 I rose up to open to my beloved; And my hands dropped with myrrh, And my fingers with liquid myrrh, Upon the handles of the lock.
Maka bangunlah aku hendak membuka pintu bagi kekasihku. Mur menetes dari tangan dan jari-jariku, membasahi pegangan kancing pintu.
6 I opened to my beloved; But my beloved had withdrawn himself; he was gone: My soul went forth when he spoke. I sought him, but I found him not; I called him, but he gave me no answer.
Kubukakan pintu bagi kekasihku, tetapi ia telah berbalik dan pergi. Aku sangat merindukan suaranya; kucari dia, tapi sia-sia. Kupanggil namanya, tapi ia tak menyahut.
7 The watchmen that went about the city found me; They smote me, they wounded me; The keepers of the walls took away my veil from me.
Aku ditemui para peronda kota; mereka memukul dan melukai aku, selendangku mereka ambil dengan paksa.
8 I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, If ye find my beloved, ...What will ye tell him? — That I am sick of love.
Berjanjilah, hai putri-putri Yerusalem, bila kamu menemukan kekasihku, kabarkanlah kepadanya, bahwa aku sakit asmara.
9 What is thy beloved more than [another] beloved, Thou fairest among women? What is thy beloved more than [another] beloved, That thou dost so charge us?
Apakah kekasihmu melebihi kekasih-kekasih lain, hai gadis yang paling jelita? Apakah kekasihmu melebihi kekasih-kekasih lain, sehingga engkau menyuruh kami berjanji?
10 My beloved is white and ruddy, The chiefest among ten thousand.
Kekasihku gagah dan tampan, unggul di antara sepuluh ribu orang.
11 His head is [as] the finest gold; His locks are flowing, black as the raven;
Kepalanya seperti emas, emas murni, rambutnya berombak dan hitam, sehitam gagak.
12 His eyes are like doves by the water-brooks, Washed with milk, fitly set;
Matanya bagaikan merpati pada mata air, merpati bermandi susu, duduk di tepi kolam.
13 His cheeks are as a bed of spices, raised beds of sweet plants; His lips lilies, dropping liquid myrrh.
Pipinya seperti kebun rempah yang wangi, bibirnya bunga bakung yang meneteskan mur asli.
14 His hands gold rings, set with the chrysolite; His belly is bright ivory, overlaid [with] sapphires;
Tangannya elok, bercincin emas dengan permata, tubuhnya bagaikan gading bertatah batu nilam.
15 His legs, pillars of marble, set upon bases of fine gold: His bearing as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars;
Kakinya seperti tiang-tiang marmer putih, dengan alas emas murni. Perawakannya segagah gunung-gunung di Libanon, dan seanggun pohon aras.
16 His mouth is most sweet: Yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, yea, this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.
Teramat manis tutur katanya, segala sesuatu padanya menarik. Begitulah kekasih dan sahabatku, hai putri-putri Yerusalem!
