1I have come in to my garden, my sister-spouse, I have plucked my myrrh with my spice, I have eaten my comb with my honey, I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends, drink, Yea, drink abundantly, O beloved ones!
1Efa tonga eto an-tsahako aho, ry havako ampakariko; Mioty ny miorako mbamin'ny zava-manitro aho; Efa homana ny toho-tanteliko mbamin'ny tanteliko aho, ary efa misotro ny divaiko mbamin'ny rononoko; Homàna ianareo, ry sakaizako, misotroa, eny, mivokisa divay, ry malala.
2I am sleeping, but my heart waketh: The sound of my beloved knocking! `Open to me, my sister, my friend, My dove, my perfect one, For my head is filled [with] dew, My locks [with] drops of the night.`
2[Teny nataon'ny ampakarina sy ny mpanjaka ary ny zanakavavin'i Jerosalema] Natory aho, nefa nahatsiaro ihany ny foko; Injay! ny feon'ny malalako, izay mandondòna ka manao hoe: Vohay aho, ry havako ampakariko, Ry voromailalako, ilay ahy tsy misy kilema; Fa vonton'ando ny lohako, Ny voloko milantolanto dia kotsan'ny andon'ny alina.[Heb. ampakariko]
3I have put off my coat, how do I put it on? I have washed my feet, how do I defile them?
3Fa hoy izaho: Efa niala akanjo aho, ka hataoko ahoana indray no fiakanjo? Efa nioza tongotra aho, ka hataoko ahoana no fandoto azy?
4My beloved sent his hand from the net-work, And my bowels were moved for him.
4Nampiditra ny tànany teo amin'ny loaka ilay malalako, dia nangorakoraka azy ny foko.
5I rose to open to my beloved, And my hands dropped myrrh, Yea, my fingers flowing myrrh, On the handles of the lock.
5Nitsangana hamoha varavarana ny malalako ihany aho, ary nitete miora ny tanako, eny, ny rantsan-tanako nitete ranon'ny miora teo amin'ny famohana ny hidin-trano.
6I opened to my beloved, But my beloved withdrew — he passed on, My soul went forth when he spake, I sought him, and found him not. I called him, and he answered me not.
6Namoha varavarana ny malalako aho, kanjo efa nihodina izy ka lasa; Very hevitra aho tamin'ny nitenenany; Nitady azy aho, fa tsy nahita; Niantso azy aho, fa tsy novaliany.
7The watchmen who go round about the city, Found me, smote me, wounded me, Keepers of the walls lifted up my veil from off me.
7Nahita ahy ny antily izay mandehandeha eny an-tanàna, dia nikapoka ka nandratra ahy; Ny mpiambina ny manda nanala ny lamba fisaronako.
8I have adjured you, daughters of Jerusalem, If ye find my beloved — What do ye tell him? that I [am] sick with love!
8Mampianiana anareo aho, ry zanakavavin'i Jerosalema: Raha mba hitanareo re ny malalako, dia ahoana no holazainareo aminy? Lazao fa mararim-pitia aho.
9What [is] thy beloved above [any] beloved, O fair among women? What [is] thy beloved above [any] beloved, That thus thou hast adjured us?
9Inona ny malalanao mihoatra noho ny malala sasany, ry tsara tarehy amin'ny vehivavy? Inona ny malalanao mihoatra noho ny malala sasany, no dia mampianiana anay toy izao ianao?
10My beloved [is] clear and ruddy, Conspicuous above a myriad!
10Ny malalako dia sady fotsy mangatsakatsaka no mena, notsongaina tamin'ny alinalina.
11His head [is] pure gold — fine gold, His locks flowing, dark as a raven,
11Ny lohany dia toy ny tena volamena tsara; Ny volony dia milantolanto sady mangilohilo toy ny goaika.
12His eyes as doves by streams of water, Washing in milk, sitting in fulness.
12Ny masony dia tahaka ny voromailala eo anilan'ny sakeli-drano, mandro amin'ny ronono sady tahaka ny vato soa alatsaka an-tranontranony izy.
13His cheeks as a bed of the spice, towers of perfumes, His lips [are] lilies, dropping flowing myrrh,
13Ny takolany dia tahaka ny tanim-boninkazo misy zava-manitra eo an-tsaha, dia tahaka ny tany navosaina misy voninkazo manitra. Ny molony dia tahaka ny lilia sady mitete ranon'ny miora.[Heb. tilikambo]
14His hands rings of gold, set with beryl, His heart bright ivory, covered with sapphires,
14Ny tenany dia tahaka ny anja-bolamena voaisy krysolita; Ny tenany dia tahaka ny ivory voarafitra tsara sady misarona safira;
15His limbs pillars of marble, Founded on sockets of fine gold, His appearance as Lebanon, choice as the cedars.
15Ny ranjony dia tahaka ny andry vatosanga miorina amin'ny faladia tena volamena; Ny tarehiny dia tahaka an'i Libanona, tsara toy ny sedera.[marmora fotsy]Mamy dia mamy ny vavany, eny, maha-te-ho-tia avokoa izy. Toy izany ny malalako, ary toy izany ny sakaizako, ry zanakavavin'i Jerosalema! [Heb. lanilaniny]
16His mouth is sweetness — and all of him desirable, This [is] my beloved, and this my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem!
16Mamy dia mamy ny vavany, eny, maha-te-ho-tia avokoa izy. Toy izany ny malalako, ary toy izany ny sakaizako, ry zanakavavin'i Jerosalema! [Heb. lanilaniny]
