Kidung Agung 6
1 --Ke mana perginya kekasihmu, hai jelita di antara wanita? Ke jurusan manakah kekasihmu pergi, supaya kami mencarinya besertamu?
Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou most beautiful among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside, and we will seek him with thee?
2 --Kekasihku telah turun ke kebunnya, ke bedeng rempah-rempah untuk menggembalakan domba dalam kebun dan memetik bunga bakung.
My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the bed of aromatical spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
3 Aku kepunyaan kekasihku, dan kepunyaanku kekasihku, yang menggembalakan domba di tengah-tengah bunga bakung.
I to my beloved, and my beloved to me, who feedeth among the lilies.
4 Cantik engkau, manisku, seperti kota Tirza, juita seperti Yerusalem, dahsyat seperti bala tentara dengan panji-panjinya.
Thou art beautiful, O my love, sweet and comely as Jerusalem: terrible as an army set in array.
5 Palingkanlah matamu dari padaku, sebab aku menjadi bingung karenanya. Rambutmu bagaikan kawanan kambing yang bergelombang turun dari Gilead.
Turn away thy eyes from me, for they have made me flee away. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from Galaad.
6 Gigimu bagaikan kawanan domba, yang keluar dari tempat pembasuhan, yang beranak kembar semuanya, yang tak beranak tak ada.
Thy teeth as a flock of sheep, which come up from the washing, all with twins, and there is none barren among them.
7 Bagaikan belahan buah delima pelipismu di balik telekungmu.
Thy cheeks are as the bark of a pomegranate, beside what is hidden within thee.
8 Permaisuri ada enam puluh, selir delapan puluh, dan dara-dara tak terbilang banyaknya.
There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and young maidens without number.
9 Tetapi dialah satu-satunya merpatiku, idam-idamanku, satu-satunya anak ibunya, anak kesayangan bagi yang melahirkannya; puteri-puteri melihatnya dan menyebutnya bahagia, permaisuri-permaisuri dan selir-selir memujinya.
One is my dove, my perfect one is but one, she is the only one of her mother, the chosen of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and declared her most blessed: the queens and concubines, and they praised her.
10 "Siapakah dia yang muncul laksana fajar merekah, indah bagaikan bulan purnama, bercahaya bagaikan surya, dahsyat seperti bala tentara dengan panji-panjinya?"
Who is she that cometh forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in array?
11 Ke kebun kenari aku turun melihat kuntum-kuntum di lembah, melihat apakah pohon anggur berkuncup dan pohon-pohon delima berbunga.
I went down into the garden of nuts, to see the fruits of the valleys, and to look if the vineyard had flourished, and the pomegranates budded.
12 Tak sadar diri aku; kerinduanku menempatkan aku di atas kereta orang bangsawan.
I knew not: my soul troubled me for the chariots of Aminadab.
13 Kembalilah, kembalilah, ya gadis Sulam, kembalilah, kembalilah, supaya kami dapat melihat engkau! Mengapa kamu senang melihat gadis Sulam itu seperti melihat tari-tarian perang?
Return, return, O Sulamitess: return, return that we may behold thee.
