New Living Translation NLT
1 POR las noches busqué en mi lecho al que ama mi alma: Busquélo, y no lo hallé.
1
One night as I lay in bed, I yearned for my lover. I yearned for him, but he did not come.
2 Levantaréme ahora, y rodearé por la ciudad; Por las calles y por las plazas Buscaré al que ama mi alma: Busquélo, y no lo hallé.
2
So I said to myself, “I will get up and roam the city, searching in all its streets and squares. I will search for the one I love.” So I searched everywhere but did not find him.
3 Halláronme los guardas que rondan la ciudad, Y díjeles: ¿Habéis visto al que ama mi alma?
3
The watchmen stopped me as they made their rounds, and I asked, “Have you seen the one I love?”
4 Pasando de ellos un poco, Hallé luego al que mi alma ama: Trabé de él, y no lo dejé, Hasta que lo metí en casa de mi madre, Y en la cámara de la que me engendró.
4
Then scarcely had I left them when I found my love! I caught and held him tightly, then I brought him to my mother’s house, into my mother’s bed, where I had been conceived.
5 Yo os conjuro, oh doncellas de Jerusalem, Por las gamas y por las ciervas del campo, Que no despertéis ni hagáis velar al amor, Hasta que quiera.
5
Promise me, O women of Jerusalem, by the gazelles and wild deer, not to awaken love until the time is right.
6 ¿Quién es ésta que sube del desierto como columnita de humo, Sahumada de mirra y de incienso, Y de todos polvos aromáticos?
6
Who is this sweeping in from the wilderness like a cloud of smoke? Who is it, fragrant with myrrh and frankincense and every kind of spice?
7 He aquí es la litera de Salomón: Sesenta valientes la rodean, De los fuertes de Israel.
7
Look, it is Solomon’s carriage, surrounded by sixty heroic men, the best of Israel’s soldiers.
8 Todos ellos tienen espadas, diestros en la guerra; Cada uno su espada sobre su muslo, Por los temores de la noche.
8
They are all skilled swordsmen, experienced warriors. Each wears a sword on his thigh, ready to defend the king against an attack in the night.
9 El rey Salomón se hizo una carroza De madera del Líbano.
9
King Solomon’s carriage is built of wood imported from Lebanon.
10 Sus columnas hizo de plata, Su respaldo de oro, su cielo de grana, Su interior enlosado de amor, Por las doncellas de Jerusalem.
10
Its posts are silver, its canopy gold; its cushions are purple. It was decorated with love by the young women of Jerusalem.
11 Salid, oh doncellas de Sión, y ved al rey Salomón Con la corona con que le coronó su madre el día de su desposorio, Y el día del gozo de su corazón.
11
Come out to see King Solomon, young women of Jerusalem. He wears the crown his mother gave him on his wedding day, his most joyous day.
