< Kidung Agung 7 >
1 Betapa indah langkah-langkahmu dengan sandal-sandal itu, puteri yang berwatak luhur! Lengkung pinggangmu bagaikan perhiasan, karya tangan seniman.
What shalt thou see in the Sulamitess but the companies of camps? How beautiful are thy steps in shoes, O prince’s daughter! The joints of thy thighs are like jewels, that are made by the hand of a skillful workman.
2 Pusarmu seperti cawan yang bulat, yang tak kekurangan anggur campur. Perutmu timbunan gandum, berpagar bunga-bunga bakung.
Thy navel is like a round bowl never wanting cups. Thy belly is like a heap of wheat, set about with lilies.
3 Seperti dua anak rusa buah dadamu, seperti anak kembar kijang.
Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins.
4 Lehermu bagaikan menara gading, matamu bagaikan telaga di Hesybon, dekat pintu gerbang Batrabim; hidungmu seperti menara di gunung Libanon, yang menghadap ke kota Damsyik.
Thy neck as a tower of ivory. Thy eyes like the fishpools in Hesebon, which are in the gate of the daughter of the multitude. Thy nose is as the tower of Libanus, that looketh toward Damascus.
5 Kepalamu seperti bukit Karmel, rambut kepalamu merah lembayung; seorang raja tertawan dalam kepang-kepangnya.
Thy head is like Carmel: and the hairs of thy head as the purple of the king bound in the channels.
6 Betapa cantik, betapa jelita engkau, hai tercinta di antara segala yang disenangi.
How beautiful art thou, and how comely, my dearest, in delights!
7 Sosok tubuhmu seumpama pohon korma dan buah dadamu gugusannya.
Thy stature is like to a palm tree, and thy breasts to clusters of grapes.
8 Kataku: "Aku ingin memanjat pohon korma itu dan memegang gugusan-gugusannya Kiranya buah dadamu seperti gugusan anggur dan nafas hidungmu seperti buah apel.
I said: I will go up into the palm tree, and will take hold of the fruit thereof: and thy breasts shall be as the clusters of the vine: and the odour of thy mouth like apples.
9 Kata-katamu manis bagaikan anggur!" Ya, anggur itu mengalir kepada kekasihku dengan tak putus-putusnya, melimpah ke bibir orang-orang yang sedang tidur!
Thy throat like the best wine, worthy for my beloved to drink, and for his lips and his teeth to ruminate.
10 Kepunyaan kekasihku aku, kepadaku gairahnya tertuju.
I to my beloved, and his turning is towards me.
11 Mari, kekasihku, kita pergi ke padang, bermalam di antara bunga-bunga pacar!
Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field, let us abide in the villages.
12 Mari, kita pergi pagi-pagi ke kebun anggur dan melihat apakah pohon anggur sudah berkuncup, apakah sudah mekar bunganya, apakah pohon-pohon delima sudah berbunga! Di sanalah aku akan memberikan cintaku kepadamu!
Let us get up early to the vineyards, let us see if the vineyard flourish, if the flowers be ready to bring forth fruits, if the pomegranates flourish: there will I give thee my breasts.
13 Semerbak bau buah dudaim; dekat pintu kita ada pelbagai buah-buah yang lezat, yang telah lama dan yang baru saja dipetik. Itu telah kusimpan bagimu, kekasihku!
The mandrakes give a smell. In our gates are all fruits: the new and the old, my beloved, I have kept for thee.
