< Song of Solomon 3 >

1 [SHE] Upon my couch, in the night-time, sought I the beloved of my soul, —I sought him, but found him not.
Dare farai a kan gadona na nemi wanda zuciyata take ƙauna; na neme shi amma ban same shi ba.
2 Come! I must arise, and go about in the city, In the paths and in the broadways, I must seek the beloved of my soul, —I sought him, but found him not.
Zan tashi yanzu in zagaya gari, in ratsa titunansa da dandalinsa; zan nemi wanda zuciyata take ƙauna. Saboda haka na neme shi, amma ban same shi ba.
3 The watchmen that go round in the city, found me, The beloved of my soul, have ye seen?
Masu tsaro suka gamu da ni yayinda suke kai kawo a cikin birni, sai na ce, “Kun ga mini wanda zuciyata take ƙauna?”
4 Scarcely had I passed from them, when I found the beloved of my soul, —I caught him, and would not let him go, until that I had brought him into the house of my mother, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.
Rabuwata da su ke nan sai na sami wanda zuciyata take ƙauna. Na riƙe shi, ban yarda yă tafi ba sai da na kawo shi gidan mahaifiyata, zuwa ɗakin wadda ta yi cikina.
5 [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.
’Yan matan Urushalima, ku yi mini alkawari da bareyi da ƙishimai na jeji. Ba za ku tā da ko ku farka ƙauna ba sai haka ya zama lalle.
6 [THEY] Who is this, coming up out of the wilderness, like pillars of smoke, —with perfume of myrrh, and frankincense, besides all the aromatic powder of the merchant?
Wane ne wannan mai zuwa daga hamada kamar tunnuƙewar hayaƙi, cike da ƙanshin turaren mur da lubban da aka yi da kayan yajin’yan kasuwa?
7 Lo! his couch,’tis Solomon’s own, Threescore heroes, around it, —of the heroes of Israel:
Duba! Abin ɗaukar Solomon ne, jarumawa sittin suke rakiya, zaɓaɓɓun sojojin Isra’ila,
8 All of them, grasping the sword, trained for war, —every man, with his sword upon his thigh, because of dread, in the night-time.
dukansu suna saye da takobi dukansu ƙwararru ne a yaƙi, kowanne da takobinsa a rataye a gefensa, a shirye don abubuwan bantsoro na dare.
9 A palanquin, King Solomon made himself, of the trees of Lebanon:
Sarki Solomon ya yi wa kansa abin ɗauka; ya yi shi da katako daga Lebanon.
10 The supports thereof, made he of silver, the couch thereof, of gold, the seat thereof, of purple, —the midst thereof, hath an inlay of love from the daughters of Jerusalem.
An yi sandunansa da azurfa, aka yi ƙasarsa da zinariya. An lulluɓe wurin zaman da zanen shunayya,’yan matan Urushalima sun yi mata irin yayen da ake yi na ƙauna.
11 Go forth and gaze, ye daughters of Zion, upon King Solomon, —wearing the crown, wherewith his mother, crowned him, in the day of his marriage, and in the day of his heart gladness.
Fito, ku’yan matan Sihiyona, ku ga Sarki Solomon yana saye da rawani, rawanin da mahaifiyarsa ta naɗa masa, a ranar aurensa, a ranar da zuciyarsa ta yi farin ciki.
