| 1 مَا أَجْمَلَ رِجْلَيْكِ بِالنَّعْلَيْنِ يَا بِنْتَ الْكَرِيمِ! دَوَائِرُ فَخْذَيْكِ مِثْلُ الْحَلِيِّ، صَنْعَةِ يَدَيْ صَنَّاعٍ. | 1 How beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince's daughter! the joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a cunning workman. |
|
|
|
2 سُرَّتُكِ كَأْسٌ مُدَوَّرَةٌ، لاَ يُعْوِزُهَا شَرَابٌ مَمْزُوجٌ. بَطْنُكِ صُبْرَةُ حِنْطَةٍ مُسَيَّجَةٌ بِالسَّوْسَنِ.  | 2 Thy navel is like a round goblet, which wanteth not liquor: thy belly is like an heap of wheat set about with lilies. |
|
|
| 3 ثَدْيَاكِ كَخَشْفَتَيْنِ، تَوْأَمَيْ ظَبْيَةٍ. | 3 Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins. |
|
|
| 4 عُنُقُكِ كَبُرْجٍ مِنْ عَاجٍ. عَيْنَاكِ كَالْبِرَكِ فِي حَشْبُونَ عِنْدَ بَابِ بَثِّ رَبِّيمَ. أَنْفُكِ كَبُرْجِ لُبْنَانَ النَّاظِرِ تُجَاهَ دِمَشْقَ. | 4 Thy neck is as a tower of ivory; thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bathrabbim: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus. |
|
|
| 5 رَأْسُكِ عَلَيْكِ مِثْلُ الْكَرْمَلِ، وَشَعْرُ رَأْسِكِ كَأُرْجُوَانٍ. مَلِكٌ قَدْ أُسِرَ بِالْخُصَلِ. | 5 Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries. |
|
|
| 6 مَا أَجْمَلَكِ وَمَا أَحْلاَكِ أَيَّتُهَا الْحَبِيبَةُ بِاللَّذَّاتِ! | 6 How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights! |
|
|
| 7 قَامَتُكِ هذِهِ شَبِيهَةٌ بِالنَّخْلَةِ، وَثَدْيَاكِ بِالْعَنَاقِيدِ. | 7 This thy stature is like to a palm tree, and thy breasts to clusters of grapes. |
|
|
| 8 قُلْتُ: «إِنِّي أَصْعَدُ إِلَى النَّخْلَةِ وَأُمْسِكُ بِعُذُوقِهَا». وَتَكُونُ ثَدْيَاكِ كَعَنَاقِيدِ الْكَرْمِ، وَرَائِحَةُ أَنْفِكِ كَالتُّفَّاحِ، | 8 I said, I will go up to the palm tree, I will take hold of the boughs thereof: now also thy breasts shall be as clusters of the vine, and the smell of thy nose like apples; |
|
| 9 وَحَنَكُكِ كَأَجْوَدِ الْخَمْرِ.لِحَبِيبِي السَّائِغَةُ الْمُرَقْرِقَةُ السَّائِحَةُ عَلَى شِفَاهِ النَّائِمِينَ. | 9 And the roof of thy mouth like the best wine for my beloved, that goeth down sweetly, causing the lips of those that are asleep to speak. |
|
|
| 10 أَنَا لِحَبِيبِي، وَإِلَيَّ اشْتِيَاقُهُ. | 10 I am my beloved's, and his desire is toward me. |
|
|
|
| 11 تَعَالَ يَا حَبِيبِي لِنَخْرُجْ إِلَى الْحَقْلِ، وَلْنَبِتْ فِي الْقُرَى. | 11 Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages. |
|
|
| 12 لِنُبَكِّرَنَّ إِلَى الْكُرُومِ، لِنَنْظُرَ: هَلْ أَزْهَرَ الْكَرْمُ؟ هَلْ تَفَتَّحَ الْقُعَالُ؟ هَلْ نَوَّرَ الرُّمَّانُ؟ هُنَالِكَ أُعْطِيكَ حُبِّي. | 12 Let us get up early to the vineyards; let us see if the vine flourish, whether the tender grape appear, and the pomegranates bud forth: there will I give thee my loves. |
|
| 13 اَللُّفَّاحُ يَفُوحُ رَائِحَةً، وَعِنْدَ أَبْوَابِنَا كُلُّ النَّفَائِسِ مِنْ جَدِيدَةٍ وَقَدِيمَةٍ، ذَخَرْتُهَا لَكَ يَا حَبِيبِي. | 13 The mandrakes give a smell, and at our gates are all manner of pleasant fruits, new and old, which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved. |
