Song of Solomon 3
1 By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loves: I sought him, but I found him not.
MALUNA o ko'u wahi moe, i ka po, Ua imi au i ka'u mea i aloha'i; Imi au ia ia, aole nae i loaa.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loves: I sought him, but I found him not.
E ku au iluna, ano, e hele a puni ke kulanakauhale, Ma na alanui, a me na wahi akea, E imi i ka mea a ko'u uhane i aloha'i; Ua imi au ia ia, aole nae i loaa.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw you him whom my soul loves?
Ua loaa au i ka poe kiai, Ka poe hele a puni ke kulanakauhale; I aku la au, Ua ike anei oukou i ka'u mea i aloha'i?
4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loves: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.
Aole liuliu ko'u hele ana mai o lakou aku, A loaa mai ia'u ka mea a ko'u uhane i aloha'i; Ua lalau au ia ia, aole nae e hookuu aku; A hookomo au ia ia iloko o ka hale o ko'u makuwahine, A iloko o ke keena o ka mea nana au i hanau mai.
5 I charge you, O you daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that you stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.
Ke kauoha aku nei au ia oukou, e na kaikamahine o Ierusalema, Ma na anetelope a me na dia o ke kula, E hooluliluli ole aku oukou, a e hoala ole i ka'u mea i aloha'i, a ala wale mai ia.
6 Who is this that comes out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant?
Owai keia e hoea mai ana mai ka waonahele mai, E like me na punohu uwahi? Ua moani mai kona mura, a me koua libano, A me na mea ala a pau a ka mea kalepa.
7 Behold his bed, which is Solomon’s; three score valiant men are about it, of the valiant of Israel.
Aia hoi, o kona wahi e moe ai, no Solomona ia, He kanaono kanaka koa [e ku ana] a puni ia, He poe ikaika o ka Iseraela.
8 They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man has his sword on his thigh because of fear in the night.
Ua lalau lakou a pau i na pahikaua, He poe akamai lakou i ke kaua; Aia no ka pahi a kela mea keia mea ma kona uha, No ka makau i ka po.
9 King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon.
Hana iho la ke alii o Solomona i hale auamo nona, I ka laau o Lebanona.
10 He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the middle thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem.
Hana iho la oia i na kia he kala; A o ke kino, hana iho la i ke gula; O ka noho ona, he mea ulaula ia; Ua kipapaia kona walua i ke aloha, No na kaikamahine mai o Ierusalema.
11 Go forth, O you daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon with the crown with which his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.
E puka iwaho, e na kaikamahine o Ziona, a e ike i ke alii ia Solomona, Me kona papale alii, ka mea a kona makuwahine i kau maluna ona, I kona la i mareia'i, i ka la i olioli ai kona naau.
