< Song of Solomon 1 >

1 Solomon's song of songs.
Kidung agung dari Salomo.
2 Kiss me, kiss me with your mouth again and again, for your love is sweeter than wine.
--Kiranya ia mencium aku dengan kecupan! Karena cintamu lebih nikmat dari pada anggur,
3 I love the way you smell from the perfumed oils you use. You have quite a reputation—it spreads like spilled perfumed oil. It's not surprising that all the young women adore you!
harum bau minyakmu, bagaikan minyak yang tercurah namamu, oleh sebab itu gadis-gadis cinta kepadamu!
4 Take me by the hand—let's run! (The king has brought me to his bedroom.) Let's be happy together and find pleasure in your love. Your love is far better than wine! Women are right to adore you so!
Tariklah aku di belakangmu, marilah kita cepat-cepat pergi! Sang raja telah membawa aku ke dalam maligai-maligainya. Kami akan bersorak-sorai dan bergembira karena engkau, kami akan memuji cintamu lebih dari pada anggur! Layaklah mereka cinta kepadamu!
5 I'm black, but I'm beautiful, women of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.
Memang hitam aku, tetapi cantik, hai puteri-puteri Yerusalem, seperti kemah orang Kedar, seperti tirai-tirai orang Salma.
6 Don't look down on me because I'm black, because the sun has burned me. My brothers were angry with me and made me look after the vineyards, so I couldn't look after my own vineyard.
Janganlah kamu perhatikan bahwa aku hitam, karena terik matahari membakar aku. Putera-putera ibuku marah kepadaku, aku dijadikan mereka penjaga kebun-kebun anggur; kebun anggurku sendiri tak kujaga.
7 My love, please tell me where you're taking your flock. Where will you rest them at noon? For why should I have to wear a veil while looking for you among the flocks of your companions?
Ceriterakanlah kepadaku, jantung hatiku, di mana kakanda menggembalakan domba, di mana kakanda membiarkan domba-domba berbaring pada petang hari. Karena mengapa aku akan jadi serupa pengembara dekat kawanan-kawanan domba teman-temanmu?
8 If you really don't know, you who are more beautiful than any other woman, then follow the tracks of my flock, and let your goats graze near the shepherd's tents.
--Jika engkau tak tahu, hai jelita di antara wanita, ikutilah jejak-jejak domba, dan gembalakanlah anak-anak kambingmu dekat perkemahan para gembala.
9 My darling, to me you're like a mare among Pharaoh's horses that pull his chariots,
--Dengan kuda betina dari pada kereta-kereta Firaun kuumpamakan engkau, manisku.
10 Your beautiful cheeks adorned with ornaments, your neck with strings of jewels.
Moleklah pipimu di tengah perhiasan-perhiasan dan lehermu di tengah kalung-kalung.
11 Let's make you some gold ornaments inlaid with silver.
Kami akan membuat bagimu perhiasan-perhiasan emas dengan manik-manik perak.
12 As the king lay on his couch, my nard perfume gave off its fragrance.
--Sementara sang raja duduk pada mejanya, semerbak bau narwastuku.
13 My love is like a pouch of myrrh, lying all night between my breasts.
Bagiku kekasihku bagaikan sebungkus mur, tersisip di antara buah dadaku.
14 My love is like a bunch of fragrant henna flowers in the vineyards of Engedi.
Bagiku kekasihku setangkai bunga pacar di kebun-kebun anggur En-Gedi.
15 Look at how very beautiful you are, my darling, how beautiful! Your eyes are as gentle as doves.
--Lihatlah, cantik engkau, manisku, sungguh cantik engkau, bagaikan merpati matamu.
16 And you, my love, are so handsome—how charming you are! The green grass is our bed,
--Lihatlah, tampan engkau, kekasihku, sungguh menarik; sungguh sejuk petiduran kita.
17 with cedar trees as beams for our “house,” and pine trees for the rafters.
Dari kayu aras balok-balok rumah kita, dari kayu eru papan dinding-dinding kita.
