Song of Solomon 1
1 This is [King] Solomon’s most beautiful song.
CANCIÓN de canciones, la cual es de Salomón.
2 Kiss me [on my lips], because your love [for me] is more delightful than wine.
¡Oh si él me besara con ósculos de su boca! porque mejores son tus amores que el vino.
3 The fragrance of the cologne on your [skin] is [very] sweet/pleasing [CHI]. And your reputation is [very] good and spreads, [like] [SIM] the fragrance of the special oil spread on your skin. That is why the [other] young women are attracted to you.
Por el olor de tus suaves ungüentos, (ungüento derramado es tu nombre, ) por eso las doncellas te amaron.
4 Take me quickly; take me to your home. [It is as though] you are my king; take me into your room. We are very happy [DOU] about you; we say that your love [for each other] is better than wine. It is not surprising that the other young women adore you.
Llévame en pos de ti, correremos. Metióme el rey en sus cámaras: nos gozaremos y alegraremos en ti; acordarémonos de tus amores más que del vino: los rectos te aman.
5 You women of Jerusalem, I am dark but beautiful; my dark skin is like [SIM] the tents in Kedar, [or] like the beautiful curtains in Solomon’s palace.
Morena soy, oh hijas de Jerusalem, mas codiciable; como las cabañas de Cedar, como las tiendas de Salomón.
6 [But] do not stare at me because of the sun having caused my skin to become dark; my brothers were angry with me, [so] they forced me to work [out in the sunshine] in the vineyards, so I was not able to take good care of my body/skin [CHI, MET].
No miréis en que soy morena, porque el sol me miró. Los hijos de mi madre se airaron contra mí, hiciéronme guarda de viñas; [y] mi viña, que era mía, no guardé.
7 You whom I [SYN] love, where will you take your flock of sheep today? Where will you allow them to rest at noontime? I want to know because it is not right [RHQ] for me to wander around like a prostitute looking for you among the flocks that belong to your friends.
Hazme saber, ó tú á quien ama mi alma, dónde repastas, dónde haces tener majada al medio día: porque, ¿por qué había yo de estar como vagueando tras los rebaños de tus compañeros?
8 You who are the most beautiful of all the women, if you [search for me and] do not know [where I will take my sheep], follow the tracks/footprints of the sheep. [Then] allow your young goats to (graze/eat grass) near the shepherds’ tents.
Si tú no lo sabes, oh hermosa entre las mujeres, sal, yéndote por las huellas del rebaño, y apacienta tus cabritas junto á las cabañas de los pastores.
9 You [are beautiful], my darling, like the young female horse that pulls the chariot of the king of Egypt.
A yegua de los carros de Faraón te he comparado, amiga mía.
10 Your cheeks are decorated with jewelry, and there are strings of beads/pearls around your neck.
Hermosas son tus mejillas entre los pendientes, tu cuello entre los collares.
11 We will make for you [some] gold earrings that are decorated/inlaid with silver.
Zarcillos de oro te haremos, con clavos de plata.
12 While the king was on his couch, the smell of my perfume spread [around the room].
Mientras que el rey estaba en su reclinatorio, mi nardo dió su olor.
13 The man who loves me is [as delightful as [MET]] a (sachet/small cloth bag) of myrrh between my breasts.
Mi amado es para mí un manojito de mirra, que reposa entre mis pechos.
14 He is like [MET] a bunch of flowers from the vineyards at En-Gedi.
Racimo de copher en las viñas de Engadi es para mí mi amado.
15 You whom I love, you are beautiful; you are very beautiful! Your eyes are [as delightful/charming as] doves.
He aquí que tú eres hermosa, amiga mía; he aquí que eres bella: tus ojos de paloma.
16 You who love me, you are very delightful/handsome, you are wonderful! This green grass will be [like] a couch [where we lie down].
He aquí que tú eres hermoso, amado mío, y suave: nuestro lecho también florido.
17 [Branches of] cedar [trees] will shade us; [it is as though branches of] juniper/pine [trees] will be like [MET] a roof [over our heads].
Las vigas de nuestra casa son de cedro, [y] de ciprés los artesonados.
