< Song of Solomon 8 >

1 O that you were to me like a brother who nursed at my mother’s breasts! If I found you outdoors, I would kiss you, and no one would despise me.
Ah, soki ozalaki ndeko na ngai ya mobali oyo amelaki mabele ya mama na ngai! Soki nakutanaki na yo na libanda, nalingaki kopesa yo beze, mpe moto moko te alingaki kotiola ngai.
2 I would lead you and bring you to the house of my mother who taught me. I would give you spiced wine to drink, the nectar of my pomegranates.
Nalingaki komema yo mpe kokotisa yo na ndako ya mama na ngai, mpo ete oteya ngai bolingo. Nalingaki komelisa yo vino ya kitoko, oyo basali na bambuma ya grenade.
3 His left hand is under my head, and his right arm embraces me.
Tika ete loboko na ye ya mwasi ezala na se ya moto na ngai, mpe loboko na ye ya mobali ekanga ngai nzoto!
4 O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure you: Do not arouse or awaken love until the time is right.
Bilenge basi ya Yelusalemi, nabondeli bino: bolamusa Bolingo na ngai te liboso ete ye moko akoma na posa ya kolamuka.
5 Who is this coming up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? I roused you under the apple tree; there your mother conceived you; there she travailed and brought you forth.
Nani oyo abimi na esobe mpe alaleli mobali na ye ya motema? Nalamusaki yo na se ya nzete ya pome, na esika oyo mama na yo azwaki zemi na yo, esika oyo abotaki yo na pasi.
6 Set me as a seal over your heart, as a seal upon your arm. For love is as strong as death, its jealousy as unrelenting as Sheol. Its sparks are fiery flames, the fiercest blaze of all. (Sheol h7585)
Tia ngai lokola kashe na motema na yo, lokola kashe na loboko na yo; pamba te bolingo ezali makasi lokola kufa, zuwa ezali makasi lokola mokili ya bakufi. Moto ya bolingo epelaka makasi lokola kake kowuta epai na Yawe. (Sheol h7585)
7 Mighty waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love, his offer would be utterly scorned.
Mayi minene ekoki koboma moto ya bolingo te; ezala mayi ya bibale, ekoki komela yango te. Soki moto apesi biloko na ye nyonso ya ndako mpo na kosomba bolingo, solo penza bakotiola ye.
8 We have a little sister, and her breasts are not yet grown. What shall we do for our sister on the day she is spoken for?
Tozali na ndeko moko ya mwasi, azali nanu moke; azali nanu ata na mabele te. Tokosala nini mpo na ye na mokolo oyo bakoluka ye na libala?
9 If she is a wall, we will build a tower of silver upon her. If she is a door, we will enclose her with panels of cedar.
Soki azalaki mir, tolingaki kotonga likolo na ye ndako oyo esalemi na palata; soki azalaki ekuke, tolingaki kokanga ye na libaya ya sedele.
10 I am a wall, and my breasts are like towers. So I have become in his eyes like one who brings peace.
Nazali mir, mpe mabele na ngai ezali lokola bandako milayi. Boye, na miso na ye, nazali lokola mwasi oyo azwi kimia.
11 Solomon had a vineyard in Baal-hamon. He leased it to the tenants. For its fruit, each was to bring a thousand shekels of silver.
Salomo azali na elanga ya vino kati na Bala-Amoni, apesi yango na bakengeli; moko na moko kati na bango azalaki kopesa mbongo ya bibende ya palata, nkoto moko mpo na kosomba bambuma na yango.
12 But my own vineyard is mine to give; the thousand shekels are for you, O Solomon, and two hundred are for those who tend its fruit.
Oh Salomo, mbongo ya bibende ya palata, nkoto moko ezali ya yo, mpe bibende nkama mibale ezali ya bakengeli bambuma; kasi elanga na ngai ya vino, oyo ezali liboso na ngai, ezali ya ngai.
13 You who dwell in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice. Let me hear it!
Yo oyo ovandi kati na bilanga, baninga na yo balingi koyoka mongongo na yo; tika ete oyokisa ngai yango!
14 Come away, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices.
Oh bolingo na ngai, kima mbangu, zala lokola mboloko to lokola mwana ya mbuli; kende na likolo ya bangomba oyo etondi na matiti ya solo kitoko.
