< Song of Solomon 1 >

1 The Song of songs, which is Solomon’s.
Kidung Agung ciptaan Salomo.
2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.
Ciumilah aku dengan bibirmu; cintamu lebih nikmat dari anggur!
3 Thine ointments have a goodly fragrance; thy name is [as] ointment poured forth; therefore do the virgins love thee.
Engkau harum semerbak, namamu seperti minyak wangi yang tertumpah; sebab itulah gadis-gadis cinta padamu!
4 Draw me; we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will make mention of thy love more than of wine: rightly do they love thee.
Bergegaslah kita, ya rajaku, bawalah aku ke dalam kamarmu. Karena engkau kami semua bersukaria, dan memuji cintamu melebihi anggur; pantaslah gadis-gadis cinta padamu!
5 I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
Biar hitam, aku cantik, hai putri-putri Yerusalem; hitam seperti kemah-kemah Kedar, tapi indah seperti tirai-tirai di istana Salomo!
6 Look not upon me, because I am swarthy, because the sun hath scorched me. My mother’s sons were incensed against me, they made me keeper of the vineyards; [but] mine own vineyard have I not kept.
Jangan perhatikan kulitku yang hitam, sebab aku terbakar sinar matahari. Abang-abangku marah kepadaku, dan menyuruh aku bekerja di kebun anggur; aku tiada waktu mengurus diriku sendiri.
7 Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest [thy flock], where thou makest [it] to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that is veiled beside the flocks of thy companions?
Katakanlah, hai kekasihku, di mana engkau menggembalakan domba-domba, di mana kaubaringkan mereka di waktu petang? Masakan aku akan seperti pengembara di antara kawanan domba teman-temanmu?
8 If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds’ tents.
Masakan engkau tak tahu tempatnya, hai yang jelita di antara wanita? Ikut saja jejak kawanan domba, dan gembalakanlah kambing-kambingmu di dekat perkemahan para gembala.
9 I have compared thee, O my love, to a steed in Pharaoh’s chariots.
Kekasihku, engkau laksana kuda betina yang menarik kereta raja Mesir.
10 Thy cheeks are comely with plaits [of hair], thy neck with strings of jewels
Pipimu molek di tengah perhiasan, lehermu indah dengan kalung permata.
11 We will make thee plaits of gold with studs of silver.
Kami buatkan perhiasan emas bagimu, dengan manik-manik perak.
12 While the king sat at his table, my spikenard sent forth its fragrance.
Sementara rajaku di pembaringannya, semerbak wangi narwastuku.
13 My beloved is unto me [as] a bundle of myrrh, that lieth betwixt my breasts.
Kekasihku seperti mur harumnya, waktu berbaring di dadaku.
14 My beloved is unto me [as] a cluster of henna-flowers in the vineyards of En-gedi.
Kekasihku laksana serumpun bunga pacar di kebun-kebun anggur En-Gedi.
15 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thine eyes are [as] doves.
Engkau cantik jelita, manisku, sungguh cantik engkau! Matamu bagaikan merpati.
16 Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our couch is green.
Engkau tampan, sayang, sungguh tampan engkau! Petiduran kita di rumput hijau.
17 The beams of our house are cedars, [and] our rafters are firs.
Pohon aras jadi tiang rumah kita, dan pohon cemara langit-langitnya.
