Kanta ni Solomon 6
1 Sadino ti nagturongan ti ay-ayatem, sika a kapipintasan kadagiti babbai? Sadino ti nagturongan ti ay-ayatem, tapno kaduaandaka a mangbirok kenkuana? Kasarsarita ti balasitang ti bagina
You who are the most beautiful of all the women, where has the one who loves you gone? [If you tell us] which [RHQ] direction he went, we will go with you to search for him.
2 Simmalog ti ay-ayatek iti minuyonganna, iti pagmulaan dagiti rekado, tapno agarab idiay minuyonganna ken mangala kadagiti lirio.
The one who loves me has now come [to me, who am like] [MET, EUP] his garden, He has come to [enjoy my (charms/physical attractions) which are like] [MET, EUP] spices, to enjoy cuddling up to me [EUP, MET], and [kissing my lips, which are like] [MET] lilies.
3 Kukuanak ti ay-ayatek, ken kukuak ti mangay-ayat kaniak; agar-arab isuna a siraragsak iti tengnga dagiti lirio. Makisarsarita iti babai ti mangay-ayat kenkuana
I belong to the one who loves me, and the one who loves me belongs to me; he [enjoys kissing] my lips like [MET] [a shepherd enjoys] taking care of [his sheep].
4 Nagpintaska a kasla iti Tirsa, ay-ayatek, naimnas a kasla ti Jerusalem, nakaskasdaaw a kas iti armada a nakaiggem iti wagayway.
My darling, you are beautiful, like [SIM] Tirzah [the capital city of Israel] and Jerusalem [the capital city of Judah are beautiful]; you are as exciting [MET] as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners.
5 Iyadayom ti kitam kaniak, ta mangguyogoy daytoy kaniak. Maiyarig ti buokmo iti pangen dagiti kalding a sumalsalog nga aggapu iti bakrang ti Bantay Galaad.
Quit looking at me like that, because your eyes excite me very much. Your [long black] hair [moves from side to side] like [SIM] a flock of [black] goats [moving down the slopes] of Gilead [Mountain].
6 Dagiti ngipenmo ket kasla iti arban dagiti kabaian a karnero a tumaktakdang a naggapu iti pagdidigusan. Addaan ti singin ti tunggal maysa, ken awan ti natay kadakuada.
Your teeth are [very white] like [SIM] a flock of sheep [whose wool] has just been shorn and that have come up from being washed [in a stream]. You have all of your teeth; none of them is missing.
7 Umasping dagiti pingpingmo iti sangapisi a bunga ti granada iti likod ti belom. Kasarsarita ti mangay-ayat iti babai ti bagina
Beneath your veil, your cheeks are like [SIM] the halves of a pomegranate.
8 Adda ti innem a pulo a reyna, walopulo nga inkabbalay ti ari, ken babbalasang a di mabilang.
Even if a king had 60 queens and 80 (concubines/slave wives) and more young women than anyone can count,
9 Ti kalapatik, ti saan a narugitan nga ay-ayatek, ket ti kakaisuna; isuna ti naisangsangayan nga anak a babai ti inana; isuna ti dungdungoen ti babai a nangisikog kenkuana. Nakita isuna dagiti annak a babai dagiti kailliak ket inawaganda isuna a nagasat; nakita pay isuna dagiti reyna ken dagiti inkabbalay ti ari, ket dinayawda isuna; Kinuna dagiti reyna ken dagiti inkabbalay ti ari
[none of them would be like] my dove, who is perfect, you who are your mother’s only daughter, whom your mother considers to be very precious. [Other] young women who see you say that you are fortunate, and the queens and concubines recognize that you [are very beautiful].
10 “Siasino daytoy nga aglanglanga a kasla iti parbangon, napintas a kas iti bulan, nalawag a kas ti init, nakaskasdaaw a kas iti armada a nakaiggem iti wagayway?” Kasarsarita ti mangay-ayat iti babai ti bagina
Who is [RHQ] this woman who is [as delightful] as [SIM] the dawn, as fair/delightful [to look at] as [the light of] the moon, as exciting as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners?
11 Simmalogak iti minuyongan dagiti nuekes a mangkita iti karusrusing idiay tanap, a mangkita no nagrusingen dagiti puon ti ubas, ken no nagsabongen dagiti granada.
I went down to some walnut trees to look at the new plants that were growing in the valley. I wanted to see if the grapevines had budded or if the pomegranate trees were blooming.
12 Nakaro ti ragsakko ta kaslaak la agluglugan iti karwahe ti prinsipe. Makisarsarita iti babai ti mangay-ayat kenkuana
[But] before I realized it, my desire [to make love caused me to be as excited as] a prince riding in a chariot.
13 Agsublika, agsublika, sika nga awan pagkuranganna a babai; agsublika, agsublika tapno mamatmatanka. Kasarsarita ti balasang ti mangay-ayat kenkuana Apay a matmatannak, ti babai nga awan pagkuranganna, a kaslaak la agsalsala iti nagbaetan dagiti dua a linia dagiti sumasala?
You who are the perfect one, come back [to us], in order that we may see you! Why do you want to look at this woman who is perfect, like [SIM] you like to watch two rows/lines of people dancing?
