Song of Solomon 3
1 On my bed by night, I sought him whom my soul has loved; I sought him, and I 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 Now let me rise, and go around the city, In the streets and in the broad places, I seek him whom my soul has loved! I sought him, and I 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 The watchmen have found me (Who are going around the city), “Have you seen him whom my soul has loved?”
Hitan’ ny antily izay mandehandeha eny an-tanàna aho; Dia hoy izaho: Sao mba hitanareo lahy ilay tian’ ny fanahiko iny?
4 But I passed on a little from them, Until I found him whom my soul has loved! I seized him, and did not let him go, Until I brought him to the house of my mother—And the chamber of her that 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 I have adjured you, daughters of Jerusalem, By the roes or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor wake the love until she pleases!
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 palm-trees of smoke, Perfumed [with] myrrh and frankincense, From every powder 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, his couch, that [is] of Solomon, Sixty mighty ones [are] around it, Of the mighty 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 of them holding sword, taught of battle, Each his sword by his thigh, for fear at night.
An-tsabatra avokoa izy rehetra sady mahay miady, samy mitondra ny sabany eo am-balahany avy noho ny tahotra amin’ ny alina.
9 A palanquin King Solomon made for himself, Of the wood of Lebanon,
Nanao filanjana ho azy Solomona mpanjaka tamin’ ny hazo avy any Libanona:
10 Its pillars he made of silver, Its bottom of gold, its seat of purple, Its midst lined [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 Go forth, and look, you daughters of Zion, On King Solomon, with the crown, With which his mother crowned him, In the day of his espousals, And in the day of the joy of his heart!
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.
