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 ।
Behold, you are beautiful, my love. Behold, you are beautiful. Your eyes are like doves behind your veil. Your hair is as a flock of goats, that descend from 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 newly shorn flock, which have come up from the washing, where every one of them has twins. None is bereaved amongst them.
3 तिम्रा ओठ सिन्दुरे रङको धागोजस्ता राता छन् । तिम्रो मुख मायालु छ । तिम्रा गालाहरू घुम्टोभित्रका दुई फ्याक परेका दारिमहरूजस्ता छन् ।
Your lips are like scarlet thread. Your mouth is lovely. Your temples are like a piece of a pomegranate behind your veil.
4 तिम्रो घाँटी सिपाहीहरूका एक हजार ढाल झुण्ड्याइएको, पत्थरहरूको लहरमा निर्मित दाऊदको धरहराजस्तो छ ।
Your neck is like David’s tower built for an armoury, on which a thousand shields hang, all the shields of the mighty men.
5 तिम्रा दुई स्तन दुईवटा पाठाजस्ता छन्, लिलीहरूको बिचमा चर्ने हरिणका जुम्ल्याहा पाठाजस्ता छन् ।
Your two breasts are like two fawns that are twins of a roe, which feed amongst the lilies.
6 बिहान भएर छाया नभागेसम्म म मूर्रको पहाड र धूपको डाँडामा उक्लने छु ।
Until the day is cool, and the shadows flee away, I will go to the mountain of myrrh, to the hill of frankincense.
7 हे मेरी प्रिय, तिमी हर क्षेत्रमा सुन्दरी छ्यौ, र तिमीमा कुनै खोट छैन ।
You are all beautiful, my love. There is no spot in you.
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, with me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, from the top of Senir and Hermon, from the lions’ dens, 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 ravished my heart, my sister, my bride. You have ravished my heart with one of your eyes, with one chain 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 beautiful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much better is your love than wine, the fragrance of your perfumes than all kinds of 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 like the honeycomb. Honey and milk are under your tongue. The smell of your garments is like the smell of Lebanon.
12 हे मेरी बहिनी, मेरी दुलही बन्द गरिएको बगैँचाझैँ, छोपिएको फुहाराझैँ छिन् ।
My sister, my bride, is a locked up garden; a locked up spring, a sealed fountain.
13 तिम्रा हाँगाहरू उत्तम फल फलाउने अनारका रुखहरू, मेहदी र जटामसीको कुञ्जझैँ,
Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates, with precious fruits, henna with spikenard plants,
14 जटामसी र केशर, बोझो र दालचिनीसाथै हर किसिमका मसलाहरू, मूर्र र एलावासाथै हर किसिमका सुगन्धित मसलाहरूको कुञ्जझैँ छन् ।
spikenard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon, with every kind of incense tree; myrrh and aloes, with all the best spices,
15 तिमी त बगैँचाको फुहारा, ताजा पानीको इनार, लेबनानबाट बहने खोलाहरू हौ । प्रेमिका प्रेमीसित बोल्दैः
a fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, flowing streams 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, north wind, and come, you south! Blow on my garden, that its spices may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and taste his precious fruits.
