雅歌 6
1 婦女のいと美はしきものよ 汝の愛する者は何處へゆきしや なんぢの愛する者はいづこへおもむきしや われら汝とともにたづねん
To where has your beloved gone, O beautiful among women? To where has your beloved turned, And we seek him with you?
2 わが愛するものは己の園にくだり 香しき花の床にゆき 園の中にて群を牧ひ また百合花を採る
My beloved went down to his garden, To the beds of the spice, To delight himself in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
3 我はわが愛する者につき わが愛する者はわれにつく 彼は百合花の中にてその群を牧ふ
I [am] my beloved’s, and my beloved [is] mine, Who is delighting himself among the lilies.
4 わが佳耦よ なんぢは美はしきことテルザのごとく 華やかなることヱルサレムのごとく 畏るべきこと旗をあげたる軍旅のごとし
You [are] beautiful, my friend, as Tirzah, lovely as Jerusalem, Awe-inspiring as bannered hosts.
5 なんぢの目は我をおそれしむ 請ふ我よりはなれしめよ なんぢの髮はギレアデ山の腰に臥たる山羊の群に似たり
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 なんぢの齒は毛を剪たる牝羊の浴塲より出たるがごとし おのおの雙子をうみてひとつも子なきものはなし
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 なんぢの頬は面帕の後にありて石榴の半片に似たり
As the work of the pomegranate [is] your temple behind your veil.
8 后六十人 妃嬪八十人 數しられぬ處女あり
Sixty are queens, and eighty concubines, And virgins without number.
9 わが鴿わが完き者はただ一人のみ 彼はその母の獨子にして產たる者の喜ぶところの者なり 女子等は彼を見て幸福なる者ととなへ 后等妃嬪等は彼を見て讃む
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 この晨光のごとくに見えわたり 月のごとくに美はしく 日のごとくに輝やき 畏るべきこと旗をあげたる軍旅のごとき者は誰ぞや
“Who [is] this that is looking forth as morning, Beautiful as the moon—clear as the sun, Awe-inspiring as bannered hosts?”
11 われ胡桃の園にくだりゆき 谷の靑き草木を見 葡萄や芽しし石榴の花や咲しと見回しをりしに
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 意はず知ず我が心われをしてわが貴とき民の車の中間にあらしむ
I did not know my soul, It made me—chariots of my people Nadib.
13 歸れ歸れシユラミの婦よ 歸れ歸れ われら汝を觀んことをねがふ なんぢら何とてマハナイムの跳舞を觀るごとくにシユラミの婦を觀んとねがふや
Return, return, O Shulammith! Return, return, and we look on you. What do you see in Shulammith?
