Cantares 3
La Palabra (España)
3 En mi cama, por la noche,
busqué al amor de mi vida,
lo busqué y no lo encontré.
2 Entonces me levanté
y recorrí la ciudad;
por las calles y las plazas
busqué al amor de mi vida,
lo busqué y no lo encontré.
3 Me descubrieron los guardias
que hacían ronda en la ciudad:
“¿Habéis visto vosotros
al amor de mi vida?”.
4 Y a poco de pasarlos
hallé al amor de mi vida;
lo agarré y no lo solté
hasta meterlo en casa de mi madre,
en la alcoba de la que me engendró.
Amado
5 Juradme, muchachas de Jerusalén,
por las gacelas y ciervas del campo,
que no despertaréis ni turbaréis
al amor hasta que él quiera.
Tercer cantar
Coro
6 ¿Qué es eso que sube del desierto
como columna de humo
con olor a incienso y mirra
y a mil aromas exóticos?
Amada
7 Esa es la litera de Salomón,
escoltada por sesenta valientes,
de lo más escogido de Israel:
8 todos van armados con espadas,
como expertos guerreros;
cada uno con su espada al flanco
ante amenazas nocturnas.
9 El rey Salomón se hizo un palanquín
con maderas del Líbano:
10 sus columnas son de plata,
su respaldo de oro,
sus asientos de púrpura
y su interior está decorado con amor
por las muchachas de Jerusalén.
11 Salid a admirar,
muchachas de Sión,
al rey Salomón
con la corona que le ciñó su madre
el día de su boda,
un día feliz para él.

3 Por las noches, sobre mi lecho,
busco al amor de mi vida;
lo busco y no lo hallo.
2 Me levanto, voy por la ciudad,
por sus calles y mercados,
buscando al amor de mi vida.
Lo busqué y no lo hallé.
3 Me encuentran los centinelas
mientras rondan la ciudad.
Les pregunto:
«¿Han visto ustedes al amor de mi vida?».
4 No bien los he dejado,
cuando encuentro al amor de mi vida.
Lo abrazo y, sin soltarlo,
lo llevo a la casa de mi madre,
a la alcoba donde ella me concibió.
El amado
5 Yo les ruego, doncellas de Jerusalén,
por las gacelas y cervatillas del bosque,
que no desvelen ni molesten a mi amada
hasta que ella quiera despertar.
Tercer Canto
El coro
6 ¿Qué es eso que sube por el desierto
semejante a una columna de humo,
entre aromas de mirra e incienso,
entre perfumes de mercaderes?
7 ¡Miren! ¡Es el carruaje de Salomón!
Viene escoltado por sesenta guerreros,
escogidos entre los más valientes de Israel.
8 Todos ellos portan espadas
y han sido adiestrados para el combate;
cada uno lleva la espada al cinto
por causa de los peligros de la noche.
9 Salomón mismo se hizo el carruaje
con finas maderas del Líbano.
10 Hizo de plata las columnas
y de oro los soportes.
El asiento lo tapizó de color púrpura
y su interior fue decorado con esmero
por las hijas de Jerusalén.
11 ¡Salgan, doncellas de Sión!
¡Contemplen al rey Salomón!
¡Lleva puesta la corona que le ciñó su madre
el día en que contrajo nupcias,
el día en que se alegró su corazón!

Song of Solomon 3
Darby Translation
3 On my bed, in the nights, I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city; In the streets and in the broadways Will I seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me:—Have ye seen him whom my soul loveth?
4 —Scarcely had I passed from them, When I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, Until I had brought him into my mother's house, And into the chamber of her that conceived me.
5 I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles, or by the hinds of the field, That ye stir not up, nor awake [my] love, till he please.
6 Who is this, [she] that cometh up from the wilderness Like pillars of smoke, Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, With all powders of the merchant? …
7 Behold his couch, Solomon's own: Threescore mighty men are about it, Of the mighty of Israel.
8 They all hold the sword, Experts in war; Each hath his sword upon his thigh Because of alarm in the nights.
9 King Solomon made himself a palanquin Of the wood of Lebanon.
10 Its pillars he made of silver, Its support of gold, Its seat of purple; The midst thereof was paved [with] love By the daughters of Jerusalem.
11 Go forth, daughters of Zion, And behold king Solomon With the crown wherewith his mother crowned him In the day of his espousals, And in the day of the gladness of his heart.

3 By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?
4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.
5 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.
6 Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant?
7 Behold his bed, which is Solomon's; threescore valiant men are about it, of the valiant of Israel.
8 They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man hath his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night.
9 King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon.
10 He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem.
11 Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.

3 All night long on my bed
I looked(A) for the one my heart loves;
I looked for him but did not find him.
2 I will get up now and go about the city,
through its streets and squares;
I will search for the one my heart loves.
So I looked for him but did not find him.
3 The watchmen found me
as they made their rounds in the city.(B)
“Have you seen the one my heart loves?”
4 Scarcely had I passed them
when I found the one my heart loves.
I held him and would not let him go
till I had brought him to my mother’s house,(C)
to the room of the one who conceived me.(D)
5 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you(E)
by the gazelles and by the does of the field:
Do not arouse or awaken love
until it so desires.(F)
6 Who is this coming up from the wilderness(G)
like a column of smoke,
perfumed with myrrh(H) and incense
made from all the spices(I) of the merchant?
7 Look! It is Solomon’s carriage,
escorted by sixty warriors,(J)
the noblest of Israel,
8 all of them wearing the sword,
all experienced in battle,
each with his sword at his side,
prepared for the terrors of the night.(K)
9 King Solomon made for himself the carriage;
he made it of wood from Lebanon.
10 Its posts he made of silver,
its base of gold.
Its seat was upholstered with purple,
its interior inlaid with love.
Daughters of Jerusalem, 11 come out,
and look, you daughters of Zion.(L)
Look[a] on King Solomon wearing a crown,
the crown with which his mother crowned him
on the day of his wedding,
the day his heart rejoiced.(M)
