श्रेष्ठगीत 4
1 प्रेमी प्रेमिकासित बोल्दैः हे मेरी प्रिय, तिमी सुन्दरी छ्यौ । तिमी सुन्दरी छ्यौ । घुम्टोभित्र लुकेका तिम्रा आँखा ढुकुरजस्ता छन् । तिम्रो कपाल गिलाद पहाडबाट झरिरहेका बाख्राहरूको बगालजस्तो छ ।
How beautiful you are, my darling— how very beautiful! Your eyes are like doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down Mount Gilead.
2 तिम्रा दाँत भरखरै कत्रेका, नुहाउने ठाउँबाट आएका भेडीहरूको बथानजस्तै छन् । हरेकको जुम्ल्याहा छ, र तिनीहरूका बिचमा कोही पनि एकलो छैन ।
Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn sheep coming up from the washing; each has its twin, and not one of them is lost.
3 तिम्रा ओठ सिन्दुरे रङको धागोजस्ता राता छन् । तिम्रो मुख मायालु छ । तिम्रा गालाहरू घुम्टोभित्रका दुई फ्याक परेका दारिमहरूजस्ता छन् ।
Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon, and your mouth is lovely. Your brow behind your veil is like a slice of pomegranate.
4 तिम्रो घाँटी सिपाहीहरूका एक हजार ढाल झुण्ड्याइएको, पत्थरहरूको लहरमा निर्मित दाऊदको धरहराजस्तो छ ।
Your neck is like the tower of David, built with rows of stones; on it hang a thousand shields, all of them shields of warriors.
5 तिम्रा दुई स्तन दुईवटा पाठाजस्ता छन्, लिलीहरूको बिचमा चर्ने हरिणका जुम्ल्याहा पाठाजस्ता छन् ।
Your breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle grazing among the lilies.
6 बिहान भएर छाया नभागेसम्म म मूर्रको पहाड र धूपको डाँडामा उक्लने छु ।
Before the day breaks and the shadows flee, I will make my way to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of frankincense.
7 हे मेरी प्रिय, तिमी हर क्षेत्रमा सुन्दरी छ्यौ, र तिमीमा कुनै खोट छैन ।
You are altogether beautiful, my darling; in you there is no flaw.
8 हे मेरी दुलही, लेबनानबाट आऊ । लेबनानबाट मसितै आऊ । अमानाको टाकुराबाट ओर्लेर आऊ; सेनीर र हेर्मोनको टाकुराबाट, सिंहहरूको ओडार र चितुवाहरूका पहाडी अखडाबाट आऊ ।
Come with me from Lebanon, my bride, come with me from Lebanon! Descend from the peak of Amana, from the summits of Senir and Hermon, from the dens of the lions, from the mountains of the leopards.
9 हे मेरी बहिनी, मेरी दुलही, तिमीले मेरो हृदय चोरेकी छौ । एकै नजरले, तिम्रो हारको रत्नले तिमीले मेरो हृदय चोरेकी छौ ।
You have captured my heart, my sister, my bride; you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your neck.
10 हे मेरी बहिनी, मेरी दुलही, तिम्रो प्रेम कति सुन्दर छ! तिम्रो प्रेम दाखमद्यभन्दा कति असल छ! कुनै पनि मसलाभन्दा तिम्रो अत्तरको बास्ना सुगन्धित छ ।
How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride! Your love is much better than wine, and the fragrance of your perfume than all spices.
11 हे मेरी दुलही, तिम्रा ओठले मह चुहाउँछन् । मह र दूध तिम्रो जिब्रोमूनि छन् । तिम्रो लुगाको बास्ना लेबनानको बास्नाझैँ छ ।
Your lips, my bride, drip sweetness like the honeycomb; honey and milk are under your tongue, and the fragrance of your garments is like the aroma of Lebanon.
12 हे मेरी बहिनी, मेरी दुलही बन्द गरिएको बगैँचाझैँ, छोपिएको फुहाराझैँ छिन् ।
My sister, my bride, you are a garden locked up, a spring enclosed, a fountain sealed.
13 तिम्रा हाँगाहरू उत्तम फल फलाउने अनारका रुखहरू, मेहदी र जटामसीको कुञ्जझैँ,
Your branches are an orchard of pomegranates with the choicest of fruits, with henna and nard,
14 जटामसी र केशर, बोझो र दालचिनीसाथै हर किसिमका मसलाहरू, मूर्र र एलावासाथै हर किसिमका सुगन्धित मसलाहरूको कुञ्जझैँ छन् ।
with nard and saffron, with calamus and cinnamon, with every kind of frankincense tree, with myrrh and aloes, with all the finest spices.
15 तिमी त बगैँचाको फुहारा, ताजा पानीको इनार, लेबनानबाट बहने खोलाहरू हौ । प्रेमिका प्रेमीसित बोल्दैः
You are a garden spring, a well of fresh water flowing down from Lebanon.
16 ए उत्तरी बतास, बिउँझी । ए दक्षिणी बतास, आइज । मेरो बगैँचाका मसलाहरूले आ-आफ्ना सुगन्ध फैलाउन सकून् भनेर यहाँबाट बह । मेरा प्रेमी उहाँको बगैँचामा आऊन्, र उसका उत्तम फलहरू खाऊन् ।
Awake, O north wind, and come, O south wind. Breathe on my garden and spread the fragrance of its spices. Let my beloved come into his garden and taste its choicest fruits.
