妳的兩腿,圓潤似玉,是藝術家手中的傑作。◆甲:妳的肚臍,有如圓樽,總不缺少調香的美酒。◆乙:妳的肚腹,有如一堆麥粒,周圍有百合花圍繞。◆甲:
3 Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.
妳的兩個乳房,猶如羚羊的一對孿生的小羊。◆乙:

妳的頸項,猶如象牙寶塔。◆甲:妳的兩眼,好似赫市朋城巴特辣賓門旁的池塘。◆乙:妳的鼻子,仿佛黎巴嫩山上面對大馬士革的高塔。◆甲:

6 How beautiful and how lovely you are, my love, with delights!
極可愛的,悅人心意的女郎,妳是多麼美麗! 多麼可愛!
7 Your height is like that of a date palm tree, and your breasts like clusters of fruit.
妳的身材如同棕櫚樹,妳的乳房猶如棕櫚樹上的兩串果實。
8 I said, “I want to climb that palm tree; I will take hold of its branches.” May your breasts be like clusters of grapes, and may the fragrance of your nose be like apricots.
我決意要攀上棕櫚樹,摘取樹上的果實。妳的乳房,的確像兩串葡萄;妳噓氣芬芳,實如蘋果的香味。
9 May your palate be like the best wine, flowing smoothly for my beloved, gliding over the lips of those who sleep.
妳的口腔滴流美酒,直流入我口內,直流到我脣齒間。新娘:
10 I am my beloved's, and he desires me.
我屬於我的愛人,他醉心戀慕著我。
11 Come, my beloved, let us go out into the countryside; let us spend the night in the villages.
我的愛人! 你來,我們往田野去,在鄉間過夜。
12 Let us rise early to go to the vineyards; let us see whether the vines have budded, whether their blossoms have opened, and whether the pomegranates are in flower. There I will give you my love.
清晨起來,我們到葡萄園去,看看葡萄是否發芽,花朵是否怒放,石榴樹是否已開花;在那裏我要將我的愛獻給你。
13 The mandrakes give off their fragrance; at the door where we are staying are all sorts of choice fruits, new and old, that I have stored up for you, my beloved.
蔓陀羅花香四溢,我們的門旁有各種美果,新的舊的都有;我心愛的,我都為妳留下。
