Song of Solomon 5
1 I have come to my garden, my sister-spouse, I have plucked my myrrh with my spice, I have eaten my comb with my honey, I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends, drink, Indeed, drink abundantly, O beloved ones!
わが妹わがはなよめよ 我はわが園にいり わが沒藥と薫物とを採り わが蜜房と蜜とを食ひ わが酒とわが乳とを飮り わが伴侶等よ 請ふ食へ わが愛する人々よ 請ふ飮あけよ
2 I am sleeping, but my heart wakes: The sound of my beloved knocking! “Open to me, my sister, my friend, My dove, my perfect one, For my head is filled [with] dew, My locks [with] drops of the night.”
われは睡りたれどもわが心は醒ゐたり 時にわが愛する者の聲あり 即はち門をたたきていふ わが妹わが佳耦 わが鴿 わが完きものよ われのために開け わが首には露滿ち わが髮の毛には夜の點滴みてりと
3 I have put off my coat, how do I put it on? I have washed my feet, how do I defile them?
われすでにわが衣服を脱り いかでまた着るべき 已にわが足をあらへり いかでまた汚すべき
4 My beloved sent his hand from the network, And my bowels were moved for him.
わが愛する者戸の穴より手をさしいれしかば わが心かれのためにうごきたり
5 I rose to open to my beloved, And my hands dripped myrrh, Indeed, my fingers were flowing [with] myrrh, On the handles of the lock.
やがて起いでてわが愛する者の爲に開かんとせしとき 沒藥わが手より沒藥の汁わが指よりながれて關木の把柄のうへにしたたれり
6 I opened to my beloved, But my beloved withdrew—he passed on, My soul went forth when he spoke, I sought him, and did not find him. I called him, and he did not answer me.
我わが愛する者の爲に開きしに わが愛する者は已に退き去りぬ さきにその物いひし時はわが心さわぎたり 我かれをたづねたれども遇ず 呼たれども答應なかりき
7 The watchmen who go around the city, Found me, struck me, wounded me, Keepers of the walls lifted up my veil from off me.
邑をまはりありく夜巡者等われを見てうちて傷つけ 石垣をまもる者らはわが上衣をはぎとれり
8 I have adjured you, daughters of Jerusalem, If you find my beloved—What do you tell him? That I [am] sick with love!
ヱルサレムの女子等よ 我なんぢらにかたく請ふ もしわが愛する者にあはば汝ら何とこれにつぐべきや 我愛によりて疾わづらふと告よ
9 What [is] your beloved above [any] beloved, O beautiful among women? What [is] your beloved above [any] beloved, That thus you have adjured us?
なんぢの愛する者は別の人の愛する者に何の勝れるところありや 婦女の中のいと美はしき者よ なんぢが愛する者は別の人の愛する者に何の勝れるところありて斯われらに固く請ふや
10 My beloved [is] clear and ruddy, Conspicuous above a myriad!
わが愛する者は白くかつ紅にして萬人の上に越ゆ
11 His head [is] pure gold—fine gold, His locks flowing, dark as a raven,
その頭は純金のごとく その髮はふさやかにして黑きこと烏のごとし
12 His eyes as doves by streams of water, Washing in milk, sitting in fullness.
その目は谷川の水のほとりにをる鴿のごとく 乳にて洗はれて美はしく嵌れり
13 His cheeks [are] as a bed of the spice, towers of perfumes, His lips—lilies, dripping [and] flowing [with] myrrh,
その頬は馨しき花の床のごとく 香草の壇のごとし その唇は百合花のごとくにして沒藥の汁をしたたらす
14 His hands rings of gold, set with beryl, His heart bright ivory, covered with sapphires,
その手はきばみたる碧玉を嵌し黄金の釧のごとく 其躰は靑玉をもておほひたる象牙の彫刻物のごとし
15 His limbs pillars of marble, Founded on sockets of fine gold, His appearance as Lebanon, choice as the cedars.
その脛は蝋石の柱を黄金の臺にてたてたるがごとく その相貌はレバノンのごとく その優れたるさまは香柏のごとし
16 His mouth is sweetness—and all of him desirable, This [is] my beloved, and this my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem!
その口ははなはだ甘く誠に彼には一つだにうつくしからぬ所なし ヱルサレムの女子等よ これぞわが愛する者 これぞわが伴侶なる
