< Kidung Agung 2 >
1 Bunga mawar dari Saron aku, bunga bakung di lembah-lembah.
As a lily among the thorns,
2 --Seperti bunga bakung di antara duri-duri, demikianlah manisku di antara gadis-gadis.
So [is] my friend among the daughters!
3 --Seperti pohon apel di antara pohon-pohon di hutan, demikianlah kekasihku di antara teruna-teruna. Di bawah naungannya aku ingin duduk, buahnya manis bagi langit-langitku.
As a citron among trees of the forest, So [is] my beloved among the sons, In his shade I delighted, and sat down, And his fruit [is] sweet to my palate.
4 Telah dibawanya aku ke rumah pesta, dan panjinya di atasku adalah cinta.
He has brought me to a house of wine, And his banner over me [is] love,
5 Kuatkanlah aku dengan penganan kismis, segarkanlah aku dengan buah apel, sebab sakit asmara aku.
Sustain me with grape-cakes, Support me with citrons, for I [am] sick with love.
6 Tangan kirinya ada di bawah kepalaku, tangan kanannya memeluk aku.
His left hand [is] under my head, And his right embraces me.
7 Kusumpahi kamu, puteri-puteri Yerusalem, demi kijang-kijang atau demi rusa-rusa betina di padang: jangan kamu membangkitkan dan menggerakkan cinta sebelum diingininya!
I have adjured you, daughters of Jerusalem, By the roes or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor wake the love until she pleases!
8 Dengarlah! Kekasihku! Lihatlah, ia datang, melompat-lompat di atas gunung-gunung, meloncat-loncat di atas bukit-bukit.
The voice of my beloved! Behold, this—he is coming, Leaping on the mountains, skipping on the hills.
9 Kekasihku serupa kijang, atau anak rusa. Lihatlah, ia berdiri di balik dinding kita, sambil menengok-nengok melalui tingkap-tingkap dan melihat dari kisi-kisi.
My beloved [is] like to a roe, Or to a young one of the harts. Behold, this—he is standing behind our wall, Looking from the windows, Blooming from the lattice.
10 Kekasihku mulai berbicara kepadaku: "Bangunlah manisku, jelitaku, marilah!
My beloved has answered and said to me, “Rise up, my friend, my beautiful one, and come away,
11 Karena lihatlah, musim dingin telah lewat, hujan telah berhenti dan sudah lalu.
For behold, the winter has passed by, The rain has passed away—it has gone.
12 Di ladang telah nampak bunga-bunga, tibalah musim memangkas; bunyi tekukur terdengar di tanah kita.
The flowers have appeared in the earth, The time of the singing has come, And the voice of the turtle was heard in our land,
13 Pohon ara mulai berbuah, dan bunga pohon anggur semerbak baunya. Bangunlah, manisku, jelitaku, marilah!
The fig tree has ripened her green figs, And the sweet-smelling vines have given forth fragrance, Rise, come, my friend, my beautiful one, indeed, come away.
14 Merpatiku di celah-celah batu, di persembunyian lereng-lereng gunung, perlihatkanlah wajahmu, perdengarkanlah suaramu! Sebab merdu suaramu dan elok wajahmu!"
My dove, in clefts of the rock, In a secret place of the ascent, Cause me to see your appearance, Cause me to hear your voice, For your voice [is] sweet, and your appearance lovely.”
15 Tangkaplah bagi kami rubah-rubah itu, rubah-rubah yang kecil, yang merusak kebun-kebun anggur, kebun-kebun anggur kami yang sedang berbunga!
Seize for us foxes, Little foxes—destroyers of vineyards, Even our sweet-smelling vineyards.
16 Kekasihku kepunyaanku, dan aku kepunyaan dia yang menggembalakan domba di tengah-tengah bunga bakung.
My beloved [is] mine, and I [am] his, Who is delighting among the lilies,
17 Sebelum angin senja berembus dan bayang-bayang menghilang, kembalilah, kekasihku, berlakulah seperti kijang, atau seperti anak rusa di atas gunung-gunung tanaman rempah-rempah!
Until the day breaks forth, And the shadows have fled away, Turn, be like, my beloved, To a roe, or to a young one of the harts, On the mountains of separation!
