Song of Solomon 5
1 My bride, [you who are dearer to me than] my sister, I have come [to cuddle up to you] [MET, EUP]; [it will be as though] I will be gathering myrrh with my other spices, and eating my honey and my honeycomb, and drinking my wine and my milk. You two who love each other, enjoy your lovemaking; enjoy all that you want to.
| ای محبوبهٔ من وای عروس من، من به باغ خود آمده‌ام! مُر و عطرهایم را جمع می‌کنم، عسل خود را می‌خورم و شیر و شرابم را می‌نوشم. دوستان ای دوستان بخورید و بنوشید و از عشق سرمست و سرشار شوید. |
2 I was partially asleep, but my mind was [still] awake. Then I heard the one who loves me knocking [at the door]. [He said], “My darling, [you who are dearer to me than] my sister, my dear friend, my perfect one, my dove [MET], open the door for me! My hair is wet from the dew, from the mist [that has fallen during] the night.”
| می‌خوابم، اما دلم آرام ندارد. صدای محبوبم را می‌شنوم که بر در کوبیده، می‌گوید: «باز کن ای محبوبهٔ من و ای دلدار من، ای کبوتر من که در تو عیبی نیست. سرم از ژالهٔ شبانگاهی خیس شده و شبنم بر موهایم نشسته است.» |
3 [But] I had already taken off my robe; I did not [RHQ] want to put it on again [to open the door]. I had [already] washed my feet; I did not [RHQ] want them to become dirty again.
| ولی من لباسم را از تن درآورده‌ام، چگونه می‌توانم دوباره آن را بپوشم؟ پاهایم را شسته‌ام، چگونه می‌توانم آنها را دوباره کثیف کنم؟ |
4 The one who loves me put his hand through the opening [in the wall], and I was thrilled [that he was there].
| محبوبم دستش را از سوراخ در داخل کرده و می‌کوشد در را باز کند. دلم برای او به شدت می‌تپد. |
5 I got up to open [the door] for the one who loves me, [but first I put a lot of] myrrh on my hands. The myrrh was dripping from my fingers while I unlatched the bolt.
| برمی‌خیزم تا در را به روی او بگشایم. وقتی دست بر قفل می‌نهم، انگشتانم به عطر مُر آغشته می‌گردد. |
6 I opened [the door] for the man who loves me, but he had left. He had turned away and was gone! I was very disappointed [IDM]; I searched for him, but I could not find him. I called him, but he did not answer.
| در را برای محبوبم باز می‌کنم، ولی او رفته است. چقدر دلم می‌خواهد باز صدایش را بشنوم! دنبالش می‌گردم، اما او را در هیچ جا نمی‌یابم. صدایش می‌کنم، ولی جوابی نمی‌شنوم. |
7 The city watchmen saw me while they were walking around the city. They beat me and wounded me [because they thought I must be a prostitute]; those men who were guarding the city walls took my robe.
| شبگردهای شهر مرا می‌یابند و می‌زنند و مجروحم می‌کنند. نگهبانان حصار ردای مرا از من می‌گیرند. |
8 You young women of Jerusalem, I plead with you, if you see the man who loves me, tell him [DOU] that I am very disappointed that we did not make love.
| ای دختران اورشلیم، شما را قسم می‌دهم که اگر محبوب مرا یافتید به او بگویید که من از عشق او بیمارم. |
9 You who are the (fairest/most beautiful) among women, why [do you think that] the one who loves you is better than other men? In what way is the man who loves you better than other men with the result that you ask us to tell him that?
| ای زیباترین زنان، مگر محبوب تو چه برتری بر دیگران دارد که ما را اینچنین قسم می‌دهی؟ |
10 The man who loves me is handsome and healthy, (outstanding among/better than) (10,000/an uncountable number of) [other men].
| محبوب من سفیدرو و زیباست. او در میان ده هزار همتایی ندارد. |
11 His head is [beautiful, like] [MET] purest gold; his hair is wavy and as black as [SIM] a raven/crow.
| سر او با موهای مواج سیاه رنگش، با ارزشتر از طلای ناب است. |
12 His eyes [are as gentle] as [SIM] doves along the streams; [the white parts of] his eyes are as white as [MET] milk, [with what resembles] jewels inlaid in them.
| چشمانش به لطافت کبوترانی است که کنار نهرهای آب نشسته‌اند و گویی خود را در شیر شسته‌اند. |
13 His cheeks are like [SIM] a garden full of spice trees that produce [sweet-smelling] perfume. His lips are [like] [SIM] lilies that have myrrh/perfume dripping from them.
| گونه‌هایش مانند گلزارها، معطر هستند. لبانش مثل سوسنهایی است که از آنها عطر مُر می‌چکد. |
14 His arms are like [MET] gold bars/rods that are decorated with precious stones/jewels. His body is like [SIM] [a column/pillar of] ivory that is decorated with (sapphires/valuable [blue] stones).
| دستهایش همچون طلایی است که با یاقوت آراسته شده باشند. پیکرش عاج شفاف گوهرنشان است. |
15 His legs are [like] [MET] pillars of marble that are set in bases made of pure gold. He is [majestic, like the mountains of] [SIM] Lebanon, as delightful/beautiful as [SIM] cedar [trees].
| ساقهایش چون ستونهای مرمر است که در پایه‌های طلایی نشانده شده باشند. سیمای او همچون سروهای لبنان بی‌همتاست. |
16 His kisses [MTY] are extremely sweet; he is very handsome. You young women of Jerusalem, all that tells you why the one who loves me and who is my friend [is better than other men].
| دهانش شیرین است و وجودش دوست داشتنی. ای دختران اورشلیم، این است محبوب و یار من. |
