Cantar de los Cantares 6
1 ¿Dónde es ido tu amado, o! la más hermosa de todas las mujeres? ¿a dónde se apartó tu amado, y buscarle hemos contigo?
Where has your beloved gone, O most beautiful among women? Which way has he turned? We will seek him with you.
2 Mi amado descendió a su huerto a las eras de la especia, para apacentar en los huertos, y para coger los lirios.
My beloved has gone down to his garden, to the beds of spices, to pasture his flock in the gardens and to gather lilies.
3 Yo soy de mi amado, y mi amado es mío, el cual apacienta entre los lirios.
I belong to my beloved and he belongs to me; he pastures his flock among the lilies.
4 Hermosa eres tú, o! amor mío, como Tirsa: de desear, como Jerusalem: espantosa, como banderas de ejércitos.
You are as beautiful, my darling, as Tirzah, as lovely as Jerusalem, as majestic as troops with banners.
5 Aparta tus ojos de delante de mí, porque ellos me vencieron. Tu cabello es como manada de cabras, que se muestran en Galaad.
Turn your eyes away from me, for they have overcome me. Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down from Gilead.
6 Tus dientes, como manada de ovejas, que suben del lavadero: que todas paren mellizos, y estéril no hay entre ellas.
Your teeth are like a flock of sheep coming up from the washing; each has its twin, and not one of them is lost.
7 Como pedazos de granada son tus sienes entre tus copetes.
Your brow behind your veil is like a slice of pomegranate.
8 Sesenta son las reinas, y ochenta las concubinas; y las doncellas sin cuento.
There are sixty queens and eighty concubines, and maidens without number,
9 Mas una es la paloma mía, la perfecta mía: única es a su madre, escogida a la que la engendró: viéronla las hijas, y llamáronla bienaventurada: las reinas y las concubinas la alabaron.
but my dove, my perfect one, is unique, the favorite of the mother who bore her. The maidens see her and call her blessed; the queens and concubines sing her praises.
10 ¿Quién es esta que se muestra como el alba, hermosa como la luna, ilustre como el sol, espantosa como banderas de ejércitos?
Who is this who shines like the dawn, as fair as the moon, as bright as the sun, as majestic as the stars in procession?
11 A la huerta de los nogales descendí, para ver los frutos del valle, para ver si brotaban las vides, si florecían los granados.
I went down to the walnut grove to see the blossoms of the valley, to see if the vines were budding or the pomegranates were in bloom.
12 No sé, mi alma me ha tornado como los carros de Aminadab.
Before I realized it, my desire had set me among the royal chariots of my people.
13 Tórnate, tórnate, o! Sulamita: tórnate, tórnate, y mirarte hemos. ¿Qué veréis en la Sulamita? Como una compañía de reales.
Come back, come back, O Shulammite! Come back, come back, that we may gaze upon you. Why do you look at the Shulammite, as on the dance of Mahanaim?
