complete verse (Song of Solomon 7:12)

Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Song of Solomon 7:12:

  • Kupsabiny: “We shall go early to go and see the vines
    to go and check if they have sprouted,
    or those vines have flowered,
    and see also the pomegranates if they have flowered.
    I shall go and show you there all my love!” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “Let us go early to the vineyard
    to see if the vines have budded,
    if their blossoms have opened,
    and if the pomegranates are in bloom—
    there I will give you my love.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “We (incl.) will-rise-up early and see if the grape(s) are-budding and already blossoming/[lit. flowering]. We (incl.) will- also -see if the pomegranates are- already/now -blooming/[lit. flowering]. And there I will-cause- you (sing.) -to-feel my love.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “And let’s go early to the vineyards
    to see if the grapevines have budded
    and if there are blossoms on them that have opened,
    and to see if the pomegranate trees are blooming,
    and there I will make love to you.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
