< Song of Solomon 6 >

1 So where has your love gone, most beautiful of women? Which direction did he go so we can look for him with you?
A ILA ihea i hele ai ka'u mea i aloha'i, E ka mea maikai mawaena o na wahine? Mahea la i huli aku ai kau mea i aloha'i, I imi pu hoi kakou ia ia?
2 My love has gone down to his garden, to his flowerbeds of spices. He enjoys feeding in the gardens and plucks lilies.
Ua iho ka'u mea i aloha'i ilalo o kona kihapai, I ka mala o na mea ala, E ai ana iloko o ke kihapai, A e ohi hoi i na lilia.
3 I am my love's, and my love is mine! He is the one who feeds among the lilies.
No ka'u mea i aloha'i owau, A o ka'u mea i aloha'i, no'u ia: E ai ana ia mawaena o na lilia.
4 You are beautiful, my darling, as pretty as Tirzah, as lovely as Jerusalem—you look stunning!
Ua maikai oe, e ka'u mea i aloha'i, e like me Tireza, Ua nani hoi e like me Ierusalema; A he mea e makau ai e like me ka poe e amo ana i na hae.
5 Please turn your eyes away from me—they're driving me insane! Your hair flows down like a flock of goats descending Mount Gilead.
E huli aku oe i kou mau maka mai o'u aku nei, No ka mea, ua lanakila laua maluna o'u. O kou lauoho, ua like ia me ka poe kao, E noho ana maluna o Giliada.
6 Your teeth are as white as a flock of sheep that are just shorn and washed. None of them are missing—they are all perfectly matched!
O kou mau niho, ua like ia me ka poe hipa, E pii mai ana mai ka auau ana mai; Ua hanau palua lakou a pau, Aohe mea pa mawaena o lakou a pau.
7 Your cheeks are the blushing color of pomegranates behind your veil.
Me ka apana pomeraite, pela kou mau maka, Iloko o kou pale.
8 There may be sixty queens and eighty concubines, and countless more women,
Aia na wahine alii he kanaono, Elua kanaha haiawahine, A o ka poe puupaa hoi, aole lakou e pau i ka heluia.
9 but my love, my perfect love, she's the only one! She's her mother's favorite, special to the one who gave birth to her. Young women see her and say how lucky she is; queens and concubines sing her praises.
O ka'u manu nunu, ko'u mea maemae, hookahi no ia, He kamakahi ia na kona makuwahine, Oia wale no ka mea i alohaia e ka mea nana ia i hanau mai. Ua ike na kaikamahine ia ia, a hoomaikai aku la lakou; O na alii wahine a me na haiawahine hoi, Ua hoonani pu lakou ia ia.
10 Who is this who is like the dawn shining down from above, beautiful as the moon, bright as the shining sun? You look stunning!
Owai keia e nana mai ana e like me ka wehe ana o ke alaula? Ua konale ia e like me ka mahina, Ua maikai hoi ia e like me ka la, A he mea e makau ai e like me ka poe e amo ana i na hae.
11 I went down to the walnut orchard to see if the trees were in leaf in the valley, to find out whether the grapevines had budded or the pomegranates were in bloom.
Ua iho au ilalo o ke kihapai agoza, E nana i na mea uliuli o ke awawa, E ike hoi i ka ulu ana o ka waina, A me ka pua ana o ka pomeraite:
12 I was so excited it was like I was riding in a royal chariot.
A emo ole, ua lilo aka ko'u uhane, E like me na kaa o Aminadiba.
13 Come back, come back, Shulammite woman; come back, come back, so we can look at you! Woman: Why do you want to look at the Shulammite dancing the dance of two camps?
E hoi, e hoi mai, e Sulamite, E hoi, e hoi mai i ike makou ia oe. Heaha ka oukou mea e ike ai ia Sulamite? E like me ko na poe kaua elua.
