Song of Solomon 2
1 [SHE] I am The meadow-saffron of Sharon, The lily of the valleys.
◆新娘： 1. 我是原野的水仙，谷中的百合。◆新郎：
2 [HE] As a lily among thorns, So, is my fair one, 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 [SHE] As an apple-tree among the trees of the forest, So, is my beloved, among the sons: In his shade, I greatly delighted and sat down, And, his 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 into the house of wine, 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 Sustain me with raisin-cakes, refresh me with apples, —for sick with love, I am.
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 His left hand under my head, then, his right hand, embraceth me!
他的左手在我頭下，他的右手緊抱著我。◆新郎：
7 [HE] I adjure you, ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or by the hinds of the field, —That ye wake not, nor arouse, the dear love until she 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 [SHE] The voice of my beloved! Lo! here he cometh, —leaping over the mountains, skipping over the hills.
聽，這是我愛人的聲音；看，他來了：跳過山崗，躍過丘陵。
9 Resembleth, my beloved, a gazelle, or a young stag, —Lo! here he is, standing behind our wall, looking in at the windows, peeping in at 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 Responded my beloved, and said to me, —Rise up! my fair—my beautiful—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, have appeared in the earth, the time of the spring-song, hath 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, hath spiced her green figs, and, the vines—all blossom, yield fragrance, —Rise up! my fair—my beautiful—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 [HE] O my dove! In the retreats of the crag, in the hiding-place of the terrace, Let me see thy form, Let me hear thy voice, —For, thy voice, is sweet, and, thy form, 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 [BOTH] Take ye for us, the foxes, the little foxes that are spoiling the vines, —and, our vines, are all 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 [SHE] My beloved, is, mine, and, I, am, his, he that pastureth among 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, be lengthened, Again, liken thyself, my beloved, to a gazelle, or to a young stag, upon the cleft mountains.
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!
