Песма над песмама 6
1 Куда отиде драги твој, најлепша међу женама? Куда замаче драги твој, да га тражимо с тобом?
You who are the most beautiful of all the women, where has the one who loves you gone? [If you tell us] which [RHQ] direction he went, we will go with you to search for him.
2 Драги мој сиђе у врт свој, к лехама мирисног биља, да пасе по вртовима и да бере љиљане.
The one who loves me has now come [to me, who am like] [MET, EUP] his garden, He has come to [enjoy my (charms/physical attractions) which are like] [MET, EUP] spices, to enjoy cuddling up to me [EUP, MET], and [kissing my lips, which are like] [MET] lilies.
3 Ја сам драгог свог, и мој је драги мој, који пасе међу љиљанима.
I belong to the one who loves me, and the one who loves me belongs to me; he [enjoys kissing] my lips like [MET] [a shepherd enjoys] taking care of [his sheep].
4 Лепа си, драга моја, као Терса, красна си као Јерусалим, страшна као војска са заставама.
My darling, you are beautiful, like [SIM] Tirzah [the capital city of Israel] and Jerusalem [the capital city of Judah are beautiful]; you are as exciting [MET] as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners.
5 Одврати очи своје од мене, јер ме распаљују. Коса ти је као стадо коза које се виде на Галаду.
Quit looking at me like that, because your eyes excite me very much. Your [long black] hair [moves from side to side] like [SIM] a flock of [black] goats [moving down the slopes] of Gilead [Mountain].
6 Зуби су ти као стадо оваца кад излазе из купала, које се све близне, а ниједне нема јалове.
Your teeth are [very white] like [SIM] a flock of sheep [whose wool] has just been shorn and that have come up from being washed [in a stream]. You have all of your teeth; none of them is missing.
7 Јагодице су твоје између витица твојих као кришка шипка.
Beneath your veil, your cheeks are like [SIM] the halves of a pomegranate.
8 Шездесет има царица и осамдесет иноча, и девојака без броја;
Even if a king had 60 queens and 80 (concubines/slave wives) and more young women than anyone can count,
9 Али је једна голубица моја, безазлена моја, јединица у матере своје, изабрана у родитељке своје. Видеше је девојке и назваше је блаженом; и царице и иноче хвалише је.
[none of them would be like] my dove, who is perfect, you who are your mother’s only daughter, whom your mother considers to be very precious. [Other] young women who see you say that you are fortunate, and the queens and concubines recognize that you [are very beautiful].
10 Ко је она што се види као зора, лепа као месец, чиста као сунце, страшна као војска са заставама?
Who is [RHQ] this woman who is [as delightful] as [SIM] the dawn, as fair/delightful [to look at] as [the light of] the moon, as exciting as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners?
11 Сиђох у орашје да видим воће у долу, да видим цвате ли винова лоза, пупе ли шипци.
I went down to some walnut trees to look at the new plants that were growing in the valley. I wanted to see if the grapevines had budded or if the pomegranate trees were blooming.
12 Не дознах ништа, а душа ме моја посади на кола Аминадавова.
[But] before I realized it, my desire [to make love caused me to be as excited as] a prince riding in a chariot.
13 Врати се, врати се Суламко, врати се, врати се, да те гледамо. Шта ћете гледати на Суламци? Као чете војничке.
You who are the perfect one, come back [to us], in order that we may see you! Why do you want to look at this woman who is perfect, like [SIM] you like to watch two rows/lines of people dancing?
