Oh that you were like my brother, who nursed from the breasts of my mother! If I found you outside, I would kiss you; yes, and no one would despise me.

巴不得你像我的兄弟，像吃我母親奶的兄弟；我在外頭遇見你就與你親嘴，誰也不輕看我。

I would lead you, bringing you into the house of my mother, who would instruct me. I would have you drink spiced wine, of the juice of my pomegranate.

我必引導你，領你進我母親的家；我可以領受教訓，也就使你喝石榴汁釀的香酒。

I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, that you not stir up, nor awaken love, until it so desires.

耶路撒冷的眾女子啊，我囑咐你們：不要驚動、不要叫醒我所親愛的，等他自己情願。

መኑ፡ ይእቲ፡ ዛቲ፡ እንተ፡ ትሔውጽ፡ ከመ፡ ጎሕ። ጽዕዱት፡ ወብርህት። እንተ፡ ትትመረጐዝ፡ በወልድ፡ እኁሃ። እምኀበ፡ ኮል፡ አንሣእኩከ። ኮልኬ፡ ዘበዕብራይዲ፡ እለ፡ ቅቡዓን፡ በደመ፡ ሐርጌ፡ ዘገለዓድ።

Who is this who comes up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? Beloved Under the apple tree I awakened you. There your mother conceived you. There she was in labor and bore you.

那靠着良人從曠野上來的是誰呢？〔新娘〕我在蘋果樹下叫醒你。你母親在那裏為你劬勞；生養你的在那裏為你劬勞。

Set me as a seal on your heart, as a seal on your arm; for love is strong as death. Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a very flame of Yah.

求你將我放在你心上如印記，帶在你臂上如戳記。因為愛情如死之堅強，嫉恨如陰間之殘忍；所發的電光是火焰的電光，是耶和華的烈焰。

አንብረኒ፡ ከመ፡ ሕልቀት፡ ውስተ፡ ልብከ። ወከመ፡ ማዕተብ፡ በመዝራዕትከ። እስመ፡ ፍቅር፡ ከመ፡ ሞት፡ ጽንዕት። ወርቅ፡ ወዮሣር፡ ኢይከውኑ፡ ሤጣ። ወድርክት፡ ከመ፡ ሲኦል።

Many waters can’t quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love, he would be utterly scorned.

愛情，眾水不能熄滅，大水也不能淹沒。若有人拿家中所有的財寶要換愛情，就全被藐視。

We have a little sister. She has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister in the day when she is to be spoken for?

我們有一小妹；她的兩乳尚未長成，人來提親的日子，我們當為她怎樣辦理？

If she is a wall, we will build on her a turret of silver. If she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.

她若是牆，我們要在其上建造銀塔；她若是門，我們要用香柏木板圍護她。
