Cantares 6
La Biblia de las Américas
Mutuo encanto de los esposos
EL CORO:
6 ¿Adónde se ha ido tu amado(A),
oh la más hermosa de las mujeres(B)?
¿Adónde se ha dirigido tu amado,
para que lo busquemos contigo?
LA ESPOSA:
2 Mi amado ha descendido a su huerto(C),
a las eras de bálsamo,
a apacentar su rebaño(D) en los huertos
y recoger lirios(E).
3 Yo soy de mi amado y mi amado es mío,
él apacienta entre los lirios(F).
EL ESPOSO:
4 Eres hermosa(G) como Tirsa(H), amada[a] mía,
encantadora(I) como Jerusalén(J),
imponente como ejército con estandartes[b](K).
5 Aparta de mí tus ojos,
porque ellos me han confundido;
tu cabellera es como rebaño de cabras
que descienden de Galaad(L).
6 Tus dientes son como rebaño de ovejas
que suben del lavadero,
todas tienen mellizas,
y ninguna de ellas ha perdido su cría[c](M).
7 Tus mejillas[d] son como mitades de granada
detrás de tu velo(N).
8 Sesenta son las reinas y ochenta las concubinas(O),
y las doncellas[e](P), sin número;
9 pero sin igual[f] es mi paloma, mi perfecta(Q),
es la hija única de su madre,
la preferida de la que la dio a luz.
Las doncellas[g] la vieron y la llamaron bienaventurada(R),
también las reinas y las concubinas(S), y la alabaron, diciendo:
10 «¿Quién es esta que se asoma como el alba,
hermosa como la luna(T) llena,
refulgente como el sol(U),
imponente como escuadrones abanderados(V)?».
11 Descendí al huerto de los nogales
para ver el verdor[h] del valle,
para ver si la vid había retoñado,
si los granados(W) habían florecido.
12 Sin que me diera cuenta, mi alma me colocó
sobre los carros de mi noble pueblo[i].
EL CORO:
13 [j]Regresa, regresa, oh Sulamita;
regresa, regresa, para que te contemplemos.

Song of Solomon 6
King James Version
6 Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee.
2 My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
3 I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine: he feedeth among the lilies.
4 Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.
5 Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me: thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead.
6 Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them.
7 As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks.
8 There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.
9 My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.
10 Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners?
11 I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished and the pomegranates budded.
12 Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib.
13 Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies.

6 Where has your beloved gone,
O (A)most beautiful among women?
Where has your beloved turned,
that we may seek him with you?
Together in the Garden of Love
She
2 My beloved has gone down to his (B)garden
to (C)the beds of spices,
to (D)graze[a] in the gardens
and to gather (E)lilies.
3 (F)I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine;
he grazes among the lilies.
Solomon and His Bride Delight in Each Other
He
4 You are beautiful as (G)Tirzah, (H)my love,
(I)lovely as (J)Jerusalem,
(K)awesome as an army with banners.
5 Turn away your eyes from me,
for they overwhelm me—
(L)Your hair is like a flock of goats
leaping down the slopes of Gilead.
6 (M)Your teeth are like a flock of ewes
that have come up from the washing;
all of them bear twins;
not one among them has lost its young.
7 (N)Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate
behind your veil.
8 There are (O)sixty (P)queens and eighty (Q)concubines,
and (R)virgins without number.
9 My (S)dove, my (T)perfect one, is the only one,
the only one of her mother,
pure to (U)her who bore her.
(V)The young women saw her and called her blessed;
(W)the queens and (X)concubines also, and they praised her.
10 (Y)“Who is this who looks down like the dawn,
beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun,
(Z)awesome as an army with banners?”
She
11 I went down to the nut orchard
to look at (AA)the blossoms of the valley,
(AB)to see whether the vines had budded,
whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
12 (AC)Before I was aware, my desire set me
among (AD)the chariots of my kinsman, a prince.[b]
