良人称赞佳偶

我的佳偶啊!你很美丽;

你很美丽。

你的眼在面纱后面好象鸽子的眼睛;

头发如同从基列山下来的山羊群。

你的牙齿像新剪毛的一群母羊,

刚刚洗净那样洁白整齐;

牠们成双成对,

没有单独一只的。

你的嘴唇像一条朱红线,

你的小嘴美丽;

你的两颊在面纱后面,

如同切开的石榴。

你的颈项像大卫的城楼,

建造得十分整齐、雅观;

其上悬挂着一千个盾牌,

都是勇士的武器。

你的两乳像双生的母羚羊,

是在百合花中吃草的一对小鹿。

等到晚风徐来,

日影消逝的时候,

我要亲自到没药山,

要往乳香冈去。

我的佳偶啊!你全然美丽,

毫无瑕疵。

我的新妇啊!与我同去黎巴嫩山。

与我前往黎巴嫩山。

从亚玛拿山顶,

从示尼珥和黑门山顶,

从狮子洞,从豹子山俯望。

我的妹妹,我的新妇啊!你夺去了我的心。

你用你的眼神、

用你项链上的一颗珍珠夺去了我的心。

10 我的妹妹,我的新妇啊!

你的爱情多么美丽。

你的爱情比酒更好。

你膏油的香气胜过一切香料。

11 我的新妇啊!你的嘴唇滴蜜,好象蜂房滴蜜;

你的舌下有蜜有奶;

你衣服的香气好象黎巴嫩山的香气。

12 我的妹妹,我的新妇,是上了闩的园子,

是上了锁的水井,是封闭了的泉源。

13 你所栽种的是一所石榴园,

有极美的果子,有凤仙花和哪哒树。

14 有哪哒和番红花,菖蒲和肉桂,

以及各种乳香树、

没药和沉香,与各样精选的香料。

15 你是园中的泉源,

是活水的井,

是从黎巴嫩山流下来的溪水。

16 北风啊!兴起。

南风啊!吹来。

吹进我的园里,

让其中的香气散播出来。

愿我的良人进入他自己的园中,

享用他佳美的果子。

How beautiful you are, my darling!
    Oh, how beautiful!
    Your eyes behind your veil(A) are doves.(B)
Your hair is like a flock of goats
    descending from the hills of Gilead.(C)
Your teeth are like a flock of sheep just shorn,
    coming up from the washing.
Each has its twin;
    not one of them is alone.(D)
Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon;
    your mouth(E) is lovely.(F)
Your temples behind your veil
    are like the halves of a pomegranate.(G)
Your neck is like the tower(H) of David,
    built with courses of stone[a];
on it hang a thousand shields,(I)
    all of them shields of warriors.
Your breasts(J) are like two fawns,
    like twin fawns of a gazelle(K)
    that browse among the lilies.(L)
Until the day breaks
    and the shadows flee,(M)
I will go to the mountain of myrrh(N)
    and to the hill of incense.
You are altogether beautiful,(O) my darling;
    there is no flaw(P) in you.

Come with me from Lebanon, my bride,(Q)
    come with me from Lebanon.
Descend from the crest of Amana,
    from the top of Senir,(R) the summit of Hermon,(S)
from the lions’ dens
    and the mountain haunts of leopards.
You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride;(T)
    you have stolen my heart
with one glance of your eyes,
    with one jewel of your necklace.(U)
10 How delightful(V) is your love(W), my sister, my bride!
    How much more pleasing is your love than wine,(X)
and the fragrance of your perfume(Y)
    more than any spice!
11 Your lips drop sweetness as the honeycomb, my bride;
    milk and honey are under your tongue.(Z)
The fragrance of your garments
    is like the fragrance of Lebanon.(AA)
12 You are a garden(AB) locked up, my sister, my bride;(AC)
    you are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain.(AD)
13 Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates(AE)
    with choice fruits,
    with henna(AF) and nard,
14     nard and saffron,
    calamus and cinnamon,(AG)
    with every kind of incense tree,
    with myrrh(AH) and aloes(AI)
    and all the finest spices.(AJ)
15 You are[b] a garden(AK) fountain,(AL)
    a well of flowing water
    streaming down from Lebanon.

She

16 Awake, north wind,
    and come, south wind!
Blow on my garden,(AM)
    that its fragrance(AN) may spread everywhere.
Let my beloved(AO) come into his garden
    and taste its choice fruits.(AP)
