5:1

ተንሥእ፡ ሰሜን፡ ወነዐ፡ ደቡብ። ንፋኅ፡ ገነትየ። ለየሐዝ፡ አፈዋተ፡ ዚኣየ። ለይረድ፡ ወልድ፡ እኁየ፡ ውስተ፡ ገነቱ። ወይብላዕ፡ እምፍሬ፡ አቅማሒሁ።

I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride. I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Friends Eat, friends! Drink, yes, drink abundantly, beloved.

我妹子，我新婦，我進了我的園中，採了我的沒藥和香料，吃了我的蜜房和蜂蜜，喝了我的酒和奶。〔耶路撒冷的眾女子〕我的朋友們，請吃！我所親愛的，請喝，且多多地喝！

5:2

ቦእኩ፡ ውስተ፡ ገነትየ፡ እኅትየ፡ መርዓት። አረርኩ፡ ከርቤ፡ ምስለ፡ አፈዋትየ። በላዕኩ፡ ኅብስትየ፡ ምስለ፡ መዓርየ። ሰተይኩ፡ ወይንየ፡ ምስለ፡ ሐሊብየ። በልዑ፡ ካልኣንየ፡ ወጸግቡ። ሰትዩ፡ ወሉደ፡ አኀውየ፡ ወሰክሩ። እስመ፡ እንቡዛን፡ እሙንቱ።

I was asleep, but my heart was awake. It is the voice of my beloved who knocks: “Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled; for my head is filled with dew, and my hair with the dampness of the night.”

我身睡臥，我心卻醒。這是我良人的聲音；他敲門說：〔新郎〕我的妹子，我的佳偶，我的鴿子，我的完全人，求你給我開門；因我的頭滿了露水，我的頭髮被夜露滴濕。

5:3

ወትእኅዞሙ፡ ቅንዓት፡ ከመ፡ ሰልብልያኖስ። ሐረገ፡ ወይን፡ ኮነ፡ መድኃኒትየ። ዘእምኀሢሦን፡ ይትገዘም፡ ወበጎልጎታ፡ ይተከል።

I have taken off my robe. Indeed, must I put it on? I have washed my feet. Indeed, must I soil them?

我回答說：我脫了衣裳，怎能再穿上呢？我洗了腳，怎能再玷污呢？

5:4

አነ፡ ንዉም፡ ወልብየ፡ ንቅህት። ቃል፡ ወልድ፡ እኁየ፡ ይጐደጕድ፡ ኆኅተ።

My beloved thrust his hand in through the latch opening. My heart pounded for him.

我的良人從門孔裏伸進手來，我便因他動了心。

5:5

አርኅውኒ፡ እኅትየ፡ ካልእትየ፡ ርግብየ፡ ፍጽምት። ከመ፡ ፋፃ፡ ቀጢን፡ ወከመ፡ መሰንቆ፡ ሐዋዝ። ያስተፌሥሐኒ፡ በሰሚዖቱ። እስመ፡ ርእስየኒ፡ ምሉእ፡ ጠለ። ወድምድማየኒ፡ ነፍኒፈ፡ ሌሊት።

I rose up to open for my beloved. My hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with liquid myrrh, on the handles of the lock.

我起來，要給我良人開門。我的兩手滴下沒藥；我的指頭有沒藥汁滴在門閂上。

5:6

አውፃእኩ፡ ልብስየ፡ እፎኑ፡ እለብሶ። ኀፀብኩ፡ እገርየ፡ እፎኑ፡ እጌምኖን። እስመ፡ ተሐፀብኩ፡ አነ፡ በስኂን፡ ወበአቅራኅዮን።

I opened to my beloved; but my beloved left, and had gone away. My heart went out when he spoke. I looked for him, but I didn’t find him. I called him, but he didn’t answer.

我給我的良人開了門；我的良人卻已轉身走了。他說話的時候，我神不守舍；我尋找他，竟尋不見；我呼叫他，他卻不回答。

5:7

ወልድ፡ እኁየ፡ ፈነወ፡ እዴሁ፡ እንተ፡ ስቊረት። እስመ፡ በሊሕ፡ ልቡ፡ እምኵናት። ከርሥየ፡ ደንገፀት፡ ቦቱ።

The watchmen who go about the city found me. They beat me. They bruised me. The keepers of the walls took my cloak away from me.

城中巡邏看守的人遇見我，打了我，傷了我；看守城牆的人奪去我的披肩。

5:8

ተንሣእኩ፡ አነ፡ አርኅዎ፡ ለወልድ፡ እኁየ። እደውየ፡ ያውሕዛ፡ ከርቤ፡ ወአጻብዕየ፡ ከርቤ፡ ምሉኣት።

I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, If you find my beloved, that you tell him that I am faint with love.

耶路撒冷的眾女子啊，我囑咐你們：若遇見我的良人，要告訴他，我因思愛成病。

5:9

ውስተ፡ እደ፡ መንሠግ፡ ተንሣእኩ፡ አነ፡ ኣርኀዎ፡ ለወልድ፡ እኁየ። ወልድ፡ እኁየ፡ ኀለፈ። ነፍስየ፡ ደንገፀት፡ እምቃሉ። ኀሠሥክዎ፡ ወኢረከብክዎ። ጸዋዕክዎ፡ ወኢተሰጥወኒ።

How is your beloved better than another beloved, you fairest among women? How is your beloved better than another beloved, that you do so adjure us?

你這女子中極美麗的，你的良人比別人的良人有何強處？你的良人比別人的良人有何強處，你就這樣囑咐我們？
