Kidung Agung 6
1 --Ke mana perginya kekasihmu, hai jelita di antara wanita? Ke jurusan manakah kekasihmu pergi, supaya kami mencarinya besertamu?
To where has your beloved gone, O beautiful among women? To where has your beloved turned, And we seek him with you?
2 --Kekasihku telah turun ke kebunnya, ke bedeng rempah-rempah untuk menggembalakan domba dalam kebun dan memetik bunga bakung.
My beloved went down to his garden, To the beds of the spice, To delight himself in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
3 Aku kepunyaan kekasihku, dan kepunyaanku kekasihku, yang menggembalakan domba di tengah-tengah bunga bakung.
I [am] my beloved’s, and my beloved [is] mine, Who is delighting himself among the lilies.
4 Cantik engkau, manisku, seperti kota Tirza, juita seperti Yerusalem, dahsyat seperti bala tentara dengan panji-panjinya.
You [are] beautiful, my friend, as Tirzah, lovely as Jerusalem, Awe-inspiring as bannered hosts.
5 Palingkanlah matamu dari padaku, sebab aku menjadi bingung karenanya. Rambutmu bagaikan kawanan kambing yang bergelombang turun dari Gilead.
Turn around your eyes from before me, Because they have made me proud. Your hair [is] as a row of the goats, That have shone from Gilead,
6 Gigimu bagaikan kawanan domba, yang keluar dari tempat pembasuhan, yang beranak kembar semuanya, yang tak beranak tak ada.
Your teeth as a row of the lambs, That have come up from the washing, Because all of them are forming twins, And a bereaved one is not among them.
7 Bagaikan belahan buah delima pelipismu di balik telekungmu.
As the work of the pomegranate [is] your temple behind your veil.
8 Permaisuri ada enam puluh, selir delapan puluh, dan dara-dara tak terbilang banyaknya.
Sixty are queens, and eighty concubines, And virgins 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, She [is] one of her mother, She [is] the choice one of her that bore her, Daughters saw, and pronounce her blessed, Queens and concubines, and they praise 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] this that is looking forth as morning, Beautiful as the moon—clear as the sun, Awe-inspiring as bannered hosts?”
11 Ke kebun kenari aku turun melihat kuntum-kuntum di lembah, melihat apakah pohon anggur berkuncup dan pohon-pohon delima berbunga.
To a garden of nuts I went down, To look on the buds of the valley, To see to where the vine had flourished, The pomegranates had blossomed—
12 Tak sadar diri aku; kerinduanku menempatkan aku di atas kereta orang bangsawan.
I did not know my soul, It made me—chariots of my people Nadib.
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 Shulammith! Return, return, and we look on you. What do you see in Shulammith?
