< Solomon Labu 3 >
1 Mounu: Jan khat khun chunga sa-mang kajal laijin, ka goldeipa ka lhangai lheh-e. Kalhangai lheh jeng in, hinlah ama ahung poi.
In my bed by night I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, and found him not.
2 Hijeh chun, “Keima kithoudoh-ing katin khopi tolsungah vahle in, lamlen-lamkah ningkoi jouse ah ka goldeipa gahol le inge,” tin ka kigel tai. Hiti chun ka gahol le in, hinlah ka gamu joupoi.
I will rise, and will go about the city: in the streets and the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, and I found him not.
3 Kholai vengtup jan khongah hon lamkah-a eina khamtang uvin, chuin keiman amaho jah-a, “Ka goldeipa chu namu khah uvem?” tin kadong’e.
The watchmen who keep the city, found me: Have you seen him, whom my soul loveth?
4 Amaho ka dalhah jouchet’na ka goldeipa kamu-mu chun, ka nailut in ka tuhchah jeng tan, chuin kapenna indan, kanu insung ah ka puilut tai.
When I had a little passed by them, I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him: and I will not let him go, till I bring him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her that bore me.
5 Vo Jerusalem chanute, loujaova sapeng le sakhi min pan’a katem nahiuve; achama ahung kipatdoh ngal lou leh kideina hi nanghon tildoh tho ding le suhkhah-tho din got dauvin.
I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes and the harts of the fields, that you stir not up, nor awake my beloved, till she please.
6 Zailom: Ipi hitantem hiche gamthip lama kon’a meikhu lom banga kijel doh letlut pi khu? Ipi hitan tem Myrrh gim namtwi chule sumkol veiho gimnamtwi kilhut nam bang jeng hi?
Who is she that goeth up by the desert, as a pillar of smoke of aromatical spices, of myrrh, and frankincense, and of all the powders of the perfumer?
7 Veuvin, hiche khu Solomon khunjon ahi in, avengtup din Israel sunga gamngah-galsat son-um pen pasal thahat somgup in ahin jui uve.
Behold threescore valiant ones of the most valiant of Israel, surrounded the bed of Solomon?
8 Amaho khu chemjam peithem cheh, galsat them cheh ahiuve. Chemjam a kiko sohkei uvin, janteng koiyin lengpa hin bulu jongleh avengdoh ding sadema kimansa ahiuve.
All holding swords, and most expert in war: every man’s sword upon his thigh, because of fears in the night.
9 Leng Solomon loupitah-a akijonna khunjon hi Lebanon gam'a thing phapen’a kisem ahi.
King Solomon hath made him a litter of the wood of Libanus:
10 Akhun jon akhom-ajol chengse chu dangka jeng in a kisem in, achung khu khu sana songmantam in akitom in, apondal-ho chu pon san dup val lheng ahi. Hichu Jerusalem chanu ten ngailutna jouse puma ajep-hoisel’u khunjon ahi.
The pillars thereof he made of silver, the seat of gold, the going up of purple: the midst he covered with charity for the daughters of Jerusalem.
11 Mounu: Vo Jerusalem chanute, hung uvin lang Leng Solomon hi hung ve tem’un. Aman akipa thanop napen, ajinei nia anun lallukhuh apeh chu akikhuh-in ahi.
Go forth, ye daughters of Sion, and see king Solomon in the diadem, wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the joy of his heart.
