4 "When I had passed by them a little, I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not release him, until I would bring him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her who bore me."	4 فما جاوزتهم الا قليلا حتى وجدت من تحبه نفسي فامسكته ولم ارخه حتى ادخلته بيت امي وحجرة من حبلت بي.
5 Groom to Chorus: "I bind you by oath, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the does and the stags of the open field, not to disturb or awaken the beloved, until she wills."	5 احلفكن يا بنات اورشليم بالظباء وبأيائل الحقل ألا تيقظن ولا تنبهن الحبيب حتى يشاء
6 Chorus to Groom: "Who is she, who ascends through the desert, like a staff of smoke from the aromatics of myrrh, and frankincense, and every powder of the perfumer?"	6 من هذه الطالعة من البرية كاعمدة من دخان معطرة بالمر واللبان وبكل اذرّة التاجر

9 Bride to Chorus: "King Solomon made himself a portable throne from the wood of Lebanon."	9 الملك سليمان عمل لنفسه تختا من خشب لبنان.
10 "He made its columns of silver, the reclining place of gold, the ascent of purple; the middle he covered well, out of charity for the daughters of Jerusalem."	10 عمل اعمدته فضة وروافده ذهبا ومقعده ارجوانا ووسطه مرصوفا محبة من بنات اورشليم
11 "O daughters of Zion, go forth and see king Solomon with the diadem with which his mother crowned him, on the day of his espousal, on the day of the rejoicing of his heart."	11 اخرجن يا بنات صهيون وانظرن الملك سليمان بالتاج الذي توجته به امه في يوم عرسه وفي يوم فرح قلبه
