Kidung Agung 1
1 Kidung agung dari Salomo.
The Song of songs, which is Solomon's.
2 --Kiranya ia mencium aku dengan kecupan! Karena cintamu lebih nikmat dari pada anggur,
Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; for your love is better than wine.
3 harum bau minyakmu, bagaikan minyak yang tercurah namamu, oleh sebab itu gadis-gadis cinta kepadamu!
Your oils have a pleasing fragrance. Your name is oil poured forth, therefore the virgins love you.
4 Tariklah aku di belakangmu, marilah kita cepat-cepat pergi! Sang raja telah membawa aku ke dalam maligai-maligainya. Kami akan bersorak-sorai dan bergembira karena engkau, kami akan memuji cintamu lebih dari pada anggur! Layaklah mereka cinta kepadamu!
Take me away with you. Let us hurry. The king has brought me into his chambers. We will be glad and rejoice in you. We will praise your love more than wine. They are right to love you.
5 Memang hitam aku, tetapi cantik, hai puteri-puteri Yerusalem, seperti kemah orang Kedar, seperti tirai-tirai orang Salma.
I am dark, but lovely, you daughters of Jerusalem, like Kedar's tents, like Solomon's curtains.
6 Janganlah kamu perhatikan bahwa aku hitam, karena terik matahari membakar aku. Putera-putera ibuku marah kepadaku, aku dijadikan mereka penjaga kebun-kebun anggur; kebun anggurku sendiri tak kujaga.
Do not stare at me because I am dark, because the sun has scorched me. My mother's sons were angry with me. They made me keeper of the vineyards. I haven't kept my own vineyard.
7 Ceriterakanlah kepadaku, jantung hatiku, di mana kakanda menggembalakan domba, di mana kakanda membiarkan domba-domba berbaring pada petang hari. Karena mengapa aku akan jadi serupa pengembara dekat kawanan-kawanan domba teman-temanmu?
Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where you graze your flock, where you rest them at noon; For why should I be as one who is veiled beside the flocks of your companions?
8 --Jika engkau tak tahu, hai jelita di antara wanita, ikutilah jejak-jejak domba, dan gembalakanlah anak-anak kambingmu dekat perkemahan para gembala.
If you do not know, most beautiful among women, follow the tracks of the sheep. Graze your young goats beside the shepherds' tents.
9 --Dengan kuda betina dari pada kereta-kereta Firaun kuumpamakan engkau, manisku.
I have compared you, my love, to a steed in Pharaoh's chariots.
10 Moleklah pipimu di tengah perhiasan-perhiasan dan lehermu di tengah kalung-kalung.
Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels.
11 Kami akan membuat bagimu perhiasan-perhiasan emas dengan manik-manik perak.
We will make you earrings of gold, with studs of silver.
12 --Sementara sang raja duduk pada mejanya, semerbak bau narwastuku.
While the king sat at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance.
13 Bagiku kekasihku bagaikan sebungkus mur, tersisip di antara buah dadaku.
My beloved is to me a sachet of myrrh, that lies between my breasts.
14 Bagiku kekasihku setangkai bunga pacar di kebun-kebun anggur En-Gedi.
My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms from the vineyards of En Gedi.
15 --Lihatlah, cantik engkau, manisku, sungguh cantik engkau, bagaikan merpati matamu.
Look, you are beautiful, my love. Look, you are beautiful. Your eyes are doves.
16 --Lihatlah, tampan engkau, kekasihku, sungguh menarik; sungguh sejuk petiduran kita.
Look, you are beautiful, my beloved, yes, pleasant; and our couch is verdant.
17 Dari kayu aras balok-balok rumah kita, dari kayu eru papan dinding-dinding kita.
The beams of our house are cedars. Our rafters are firs.
