2 Let him give me the kisses of his mouth: for his love is better than wine.
2 ¡Oh si él me besara con ósculos de su boca! porque mejores son tus amores que el vino.
2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; for your love is better than wine.
3 Sweet is the smell of your perfumes; your name is as perfume running out; so the young girls give you their love.
3 Por el olor de tus suaves ungüentos, (ungüento derramado es tu nombre,) por eso las doncellas te amaron.
3 Your oils have a pleasing fragrance. Your name is oil poured out, therefore the virgins love you.
4 Take me to you, and we will go after you: the king has taken me into his house. We will be glad and full of joy in you, we will give more thought to your love than to wine: rightly are they your lovers.
4 Llévame en pos de ti, correremos. Metióme el rey en sus cámaras: nos gozaremos y alegraremos en ti; acordarémonos de tus amores más que del vino: los rectos te aman.

5 I am dark, but fair of form, O daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
5 Morena soy, oh hijas de Jerusalem, mas codiciable; como las cabañas de Cedar, como las tiendas de Salomón.
5 I am dark, but lovely, you daughters of Jerusalem, like Kedar’s tents, like Solomon’s curtains.
6 Let not your eyes be turned on me, because I am dark, because I was looked on by the sun; my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vine-gardens; but my vine-garden I have not kept.
6 No miréis en que soy morena, porque el sol me miró. Los hijos de mi madre se airaron contra mí, hiciéronme guarda de viñas; [y] mi viña, que era mía, no guardé.
6 Don’t stare at me because I am dark, because the sun has scorched me. My mother’s sons were angry with me. They made me keeper of the vineyards. I haven’t kept my own vineyard.
7 Say, O love of my soul, where you give food to your flock, and where you make them take their rest in the heat of the day; why have I to be as one wandering by the flocks of your friends?
7 Hazme saber, ó tú á quien ama mi alma, dónde repastas, dónde haces tener majada al medio día: porque, ¿por qué había yo de estar como vagueando tras los rebaños de tus compañeros?
7 Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where you graze your flock, where you rest them at noon; for why should I be as one who is veiled beside the flocks of your companions?
8 If you have not knowledge, O most beautiful among women, go on your way in the footsteps of the flock, and give your young goats food by the tents of the keepers.
8 Si tú no lo sabes, oh hermosa entre las mujeres, sal, yéndote por las huellas del rebaño, y apacienta tus cabritas junto á las cabañas de los pastores.
8 If you don’t know, most beautiful among women, follow the tracks of the sheep. Graze your young goats beside the shepherds’ tents.
9 I have made a comparison of you, O my love, to a horse in Pharaoh's carriages.
9 A yegua de los carros de Faraón te he comparado, amiga mía.
9 I have compared you, my love, to a steed in Pharaoh’s chariots.
10 Your face is a delight with rings of hair, your neck with chains of jewels.
10 Hermosas son tus mejillas entre los pendientes, tu cuello entre los collares.
10 Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels.
11 We will make you chains of gold with ornaments of silver.
11 Zarcillos de oro te haremos, con clavos de plata.
11 We will make you earrings of gold, with studs of silver.
12 While the king is seated at his table, my spices send out their perfume.
12 Mientras que el rey estaba en su reclinatorio, mi nardo dió su olor.
12 While the king sat at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance.
13 As a bag of myrrh is my well-loved one to me, when he is at rest all night between my breasts.
13 Mi amado es para mí un manojito de mirra, que reposa entre mis pechos.
13 My beloved is to me a sachet of myrrh, that lies between my breasts.
14 My love is to me as a branch of the cypress-tree in the vine-gardens of En-gedi.
14 Racimo de copher en las viñas de Engadi es para mí mi amado.
14 My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms from the vineyards of En Gedi.
15 See, you are fair, my love, you are fair; you have the eyes of a dove.
15 He aquí que tú eres hermosa, amiga mía; he aquí que eres bella: tus ojos de paloma.
15 Behold, you are beautiful, my love. Behold, you are beautiful. Your eyes are like doves.

16 He aquí que tú eres hermoso, amado mío, y suave: nuestro lecho también florido.
16 Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, yes, pleasant; and our couch is verdant.
17 Cedar-trees are the pillars of our house; and our boards are made of fir-trees.
17 Las vigas de nuestra casa son de cedro, [y] de ciprés los artesonados.
17 The beams of our house are cedars. Our rafters are firs.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
An example of this is that passage in the Song of Solomon, "I am black, but comely, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon." For it is not said, I was black as the tents of Kedar, but am now comely as the curtains of Solomon.

So then this Bridegroom, "fair in beauty above the children of men," became deformed that He might make His Spouse fair to whom it is said, "O thou beauteous among women," of whom it is said, "Who is this that cometh up, whitened" with the brightness of light, not the colouring of falsehood!

… with you, all Beauteous as He was, prayed for you; "Father," saith He, "forgive them, for they know not what they do." For if He were without comeliness, how is it that she loveth Him, who saith, "Tell me, O Thou whom my soul loveth"? How is it that she loveth Him?
