| 1 أَيْنَ ذَهَبَ حَبِيبُكِ أَيَّتُهَا الْجَمِيلَةُ بَيْنَ النِّسَاءِ؟ أَيْنَ تَوَجَّهَ حَبِيبُكِ فَنَطْلُبَهُ مَعَكِ؟ | 1 Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee. |
|
|
| 2 حَبِيبِي نَزَلَ إِلَى جَنَّتِهِ، إِلَى خَمَائِلِ الطِّيبِ، لِيَرْعَى فِي الْجَنَّاتِ، وَيَجْمَعَ السَّوْسَنَ. | 2 My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies. |
|
|
|
| 3 أَنَا لِحَبِيبِي وَحَبِيبِي لِي. الرَّاعِي بَيْنَ السَّوْسَنِ. | 3 I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine: he feedeth among the lilies. |
|
|
4 أَنْتِ جَمِيلَةٌ يَا حَبِيبَتِي كَتِرْصَةَ، حَسَنَةٌ كَأُورُشَلِيمَ، مُرْهِبَةٌ كَجَيْشٍ بِأَلْوِيَةٍ.  | 4 Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners. |
|
|
|
| 5 حَوِّلِي عَنِّي عَيْنَيْكِ فَإِنَّهُمَا قَدْ غَلَبَتَانِي. شَعْرُكِ كَقَطِيعِ الْمَعْزِ الرَّابِضِ فِي جِلْعَادَ. | 5 Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me: thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead. |
|
|
| 6 أَسْنَانُكِ كَقَطِيعِ نِعَاجٍ صَادِرةٍ مِنَ الْغَسْلِ، اللَّوَاتِي كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مُتْئِمٌ وَلَيْسَ فِيهَا عَقِيمٌ. | 6 Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them. |
|
| 7 كَفِلْقَةِ رُمَّانَةٍ خَدُّكِ تَحْتَ نَقَابِكِ. | 7 As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks. |
|
| 8 هُنَّ سِتُّونَ مَلِكَةً وَثَمَانُونَ سُرِّيَّةً وَعَذَارَى بِلاَ عَدَدٍ. | 8 There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number. |
|
|
| 9 وَاحِدَةٌ هِيَ حَمَامَتِي كَامِلَتِي. الْوَحِيدَةُ لأُمِّهَا هِيَ. عَقِيلَةُ وَالِدَتِهَا هِيَ. رَأَتْهَا الْبَنَاتُ فَطَوَّبْنَهَا. الْمَلِكَاتُ وَالسَّرَارِيُّ فَمَدَحْنَهَا. | 9 My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her. |
|
| 10 مَنْ هِيَ الْمُشْرِفَةُ مِثْلَ الصَّبَاحِ، جَمِيلَةٌ كَالْقَمَرِ، طَاهِرَةٌ كَالشَّمْسِ، مُرْهِبَةٌ كَجَيْشٍ بِأَلْوِيَةٍ؟ | 10 Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners? |
|
|
| 11 نَزَلْتُ إِلَى جَنَّةِ الْجَوْزِ لأَنْظُرَ إِلَى خُضَرِ الْوَادِي، وَلأَنْظُرَ: هَلْ أَقْعَلَ الْكَرْمُ؟ هَلْ نَوَّرَ الرُّمَّانُ؟ | 11 I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished and the pomegranates budded. |
|
|
|
| 12 فَلَمْ أَشْعُرْ إِلاَّ وَقَدْ جَعَلَتْنِي نَفْسِي بَيْنَ مَرْكَبَاتِ قَوْمِ شَرِيفٍ. | 12 Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib. |
|
| 13 اِرْجِعِي، ارْجِعِي يَا شُولَمِّيثُ. ارْجِعِي، ارْجِعِي فَنَنْظُرَ إِلَيْكِ. مَاذَا تَرَوْنَ فِي شُولَمِّيثَ، مِثْلَ رَقْصِ صَفَّيْنِ؟ | 13 Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies. |
