Cantares 5

Riveduta 1927

2Io dormivo, ma il mio cuore vegliava. Sento la voce del mio amico, che picchia e dice: “Aprimi, sorella mia, amica mia, colomba mia, o mia perfetta! Poiché il mio capo e coperto di rugiada e le mie chiome son piene di gocce della notte”.

Reina-Valera 1909

2Yo dormía, pero mi corazón velaba: la voz de mi amado que llamaba: Abreme, hermana mía, amiga mía, paloma mía, perfecta mía; porque mi cabeza está llena de rocío, mis cabellos de las gotas de la noche.

King James Version

2I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.

World English Bible

2I was asleep, but my heart was awake. It is the voice of my beloved who knocks: “Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled; for my head is filled with dew, and my hair with the dampness of the night.”
