Song of Solomon 2
1 I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.
◆新娘： 1. 我是原野的水仙，谷中的百合。◆新郎：
2 As a lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.
我的愛卿在少女中，有如荊棘中的一朵百合花。◆新娘：
3 As an apple-tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. Under its shadow I delighted to sit, and its fruit was sweet to my taste.
我的愛人在少年中，有如森林中的一棵蘋果樹；我愛坐在他的蔭下，他的果實令我滿口香甜。
4 He hath brought me to the banqueting-house, and his banner over me is love.
他引我進入酒室，他插在我身上的旗幟是愛情。
5 'Stay ye me with dainties, refresh me with apples; for I am love-sick.'
請你們用葡萄乾來補養我，用蘋果來蘇醒我，因為我因愛成疾：
6 Let his left hand be under my head, and his right hand embrace me.
他的左手在我頭下，他的右手緊抱著我。◆新郎：
7 'I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles, and by the hinds of the field, that ye awaken not, nor stir up love, until it please.'
耶路撒冷女郎! 我指著田野間的羚羊或牝鹿，懇求你們，不要驚醒，不要喚醒我的愛，讓她自便吧![第二幕：互相追求]◆新娘：
8 Hark! my beloved! behold, he cometh, leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.
聽，這是我愛人的聲音；看，他來了：跳過山崗，躍過丘陵。
9 My beloved is like a gazelle or a young hart; behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh in through the windows, he peereth through the lattice.
我的愛人彷彿羚羊，宛如幼鹿；你看，他已站在我們的牆後，由窗外往內窺望。
10 My beloved spoke, and said unto me: 'Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.
我的愛人招呼我說：「起來，我的愛卿! 快來，我的佳麗!
11 For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
看，嚴冬已過，時雨止息，且已過去；
12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
田野的花卉已露，唱歌的時期已近。在我們的地方已聽到斑鳩聲；
13 The fig-tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines in blossom give forth their fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.
無花果已發出初果，葡萄樹已開花放香；起來，我的愛卿! 快來，我的佳麗!
14 O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the covert of the cliff, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.'
我那在岩石縫中，在懸崖隱處的鴿子! 請讓我看到你的面貌，聽見你的聲音，因為你的聲音柔和可愛，你的面貌美麗動人。」
15 'Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vineyards; for our vineyards are in blossom.'
請你們為我捕捉狐狸，捕捉毀壞葡萄園的小狐狸，我們的葡萄園正在開花啊!
16 My beloved is mine, and I am his, that feedeth among the lilies.
我的愛人屬於我，我屬於我的愛人；他在百合花間，牧放他的羊群。
17 Until the day breathe, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a gazelle or a young hart upon the mountains of spices.
趁晚風還未生涼，日影還未消失，我的愛人，願你仿效盟約山上的羚羊或幼鹿，向我歸來!
