< Song of Solomon 4 >

1 Mi frendesse, thou art ful fair; thin iyen ben of culueris, with outen that that is hid with ynne; thin heeris ben as the flockis of geete, that stieden fro the hil of Galaad.
◆新郎: 我的愛卿! 妳多麼美麗! 妳的兩眼隱在面紗後,有如一對鴿眼;妳的頭髮猶如由基肋阿得山下來的一群山羊。
2 Thi teeth ben as the flockis of clippid sheep, that stieden fro waischyng; alle ben with double lambren, and no bareyn is among tho.
妳的牙齒像一群剪毛後洗潔上來的母綿羊,都懹有雙胎,沒有不生育的。
3 Thi lippis ben as a reed lace, and thi speche is swete; as the relif of an appil of Punyk, so ben thi chekis, with outen that, that is hid with ynne.
妳的嘴脣像一縷朱紅線,妳的小口嬌美可愛;妳隱在面紗後的兩頰,有如分兩半的石榴。
4 Thi necke is as the tour of Dauid, which is bildid with strengthis maad bifore for defense; a thousynde scheldis hangen on it, al armure of stronge men.
妳的頭頸宛如達味的寶塔,建築如寶疊,懸有上千的盾牌都是武士的利器。
5 Thi twei tetis ben as twey kidis, twynnes of a capret, that ben fed in lilies,
妳的兩個乳房,好似母羚羊的一對孿生小羚羊,牧放在百合花中。
6 til the dai sprynge, and shadewis ben bowid doun. Y schal go to the mounteyn of myrre, and to the litil hil of encense.
趁晚風還未生涼,日影還未消失,我要到沒藥山,上乳香嶺。
7 My frendesse, thou art al faire, and no wem is in thee.
我的愛卿! 妳是全美的,妳毫無瑕疵。
8 My spousesse, come thou fro the Liban; come thou fro the Liban, come thou; thou schalt be corowned fro the heed of Amana, fro the cop of Sanyr and Hermon, fro the dennys of liouns, fro the hillis of pardis.
妳從黎巴嫩下來,離開阿瑪納山巔,色尼爾和赫爾孟山頂,獅子的巢穴,豹子的山崗。
9 My sister spousesse, thou hast woundid myn herte; thou hast woundid myn herte, in oon of thin iyen, and in oon heer of thi necke.
,妳奪去了我的心! 妳回目一顧,妳項鏈上的一顆珍珠,奪去了我的心。
10 My sistir spousesse, thi tetis ben ful faire; thi tetis ben feirere than wyn, and the odour of thi clothis is aboue alle swete smellynge oynementis.
我的妹妹,我的新娘! 妳的愛撫多麼甘甜,妳的愛撫勝過美洒,妳香液的芬芳超越一切的香料。
11 Spousesse, thi lippis ben an hony coomb droppynge; hony and mylk ben vndur thi tunge, and the odour of thi clothis is as the odour of encence.
我的新娘! 妳的嘴脣滴流巒蜜,妳的舌下有蜜有奶;妳衣服的芬芳好似乳香。
12 Mi sister spousesse, a gardyn closid togidere; a gardyn closid togidere, a welle aseelid.
我的妹妹,我的新娘! 是關閉的花園,是一座關鎖的花園,我一個封鎖的泉源。
13 Thi sendingis out ben paradis of applis of Punyk, with the fruytis of applis, cipre trees, with narde;
妳吐苗萌芽,形成了石榴園,內有各種珍奇的果木:鳳仙和玫瑰,杳樹,
14 narde, and saffrun, an erbe clepid fistula, and canel, with alle trees of the Liban, myrre, and aloes, with alle the beste oynementis.
甘松和番紅,丁香和肉桂,各種乳香樹,沒藥蘆薈,以及各種奇香異草。
15 A welle of gardyns, a pit of wallynge watris, that flowen with fersnesse fro the Liban.
妳是湧出的水泉,是從黎巴嫩流下的活水泉。新娘:
16 Rise thou north wynd, and come thou, south wynd; blowe thou thorouy my gardyn, and the swete smellynge oynementis therof schulen flete.
北風,吹來! 南風,吹來! 吹向我的花園,使它的清香四溢。願我的愛人進入他的花園,品嘗其中的佳果!
