< Song of Solomon 1 >

1 The Song of Songs, that [is] of Solomon.
Laa rhoek khuikah Laa he Solomon kah ni.
2 Let him kiss me with kisses of his mouth, For better [are] your loves than wine.
Namah hlo tah misurtui lakah then tih a ka dongkah moknah neh kai m'mok lah sue.
3 For fragrance [are] your good perfumes. Perfume emptied out—your name, Therefore have virgins loved you!
Namah tah situi bo neh na then pai tih situi loh na ming a puem pai. Te dongah ni hula rhoek long nang n'lungnah.
4 Draw me: we run after you, The king has brought me into his inner chambers, We delight and rejoice in you, We mention your loves more than wine, Uprightly they have loved you!
Namah hnukah kai m'mawt lamtah yong mai sih. Kai he manghai loh amah imhman la n' khuen coeng. Rhoihui Namah ah ka omngaih uh tih ka kohoe uh. Nang kah hlo rhoek tah misurtui lakah ka poek uh tih vanat la nang n'lungnah uh.
5 I [am] dark and lovely, daughters of Jerusalem, as tents of Kedar, as curtains of Solomon.
Ka muem cakhaw Jerusalem nu rhoek tah Kedar dap banglam khaw, Solomon himbaiyan banglam khaw rhoeprhui mai.
6 Do not fear me, because I [am] very dark, Because the sun has scorched me, The sons of my mother were angry with me, They made me keeper of the vineyards, My vineyard—my own—I have not kept.
Khomik loh kai n'hmuh tih ka muem dongah nim kai nan hmuh pawh? Ka manu ca rhoek te kai taengah sai tih misurdum aka hung la kai n'khueh uh. Kamah taengkah ka misurdum ka hung pawt ah.
7 Declare to me, you whom my soul has loved, Where you delight, Where you lie down at noon, For why am I as one veiled, By the ranks of your companions?
Ka hinglu kah a lungnah te kamah taengah thui lah. Melam na luem sak? Khothun ah melam na kol sak? Te boel tah balae tih na hui rhoek kah tuping taengah aka kulup bangla ka om?
8 If you do not know, O beautiful among women, Go forth by the traces of the flock, And feed your kids by the shepherds’ dwellings!
Huta rhoek khuiah sakthen te na ming pawt atah boiva kholaeh ah namah cet. Na maae-ca te aka dawn rhoek kah dungtlungim ah luem sak.
9 To my joyous one in chariots of Pharaoh, I have compared you, my friend,
Ka cangyaeh namah tah Pharaoh leng dongkah ka marhang manu kam puet sak.
10 Your cheeks have been lovely with garlands, your neck with chains.
Na kam te aitlaeng neh, na rhawn khaw oidik neh damyal mai.
11 We make garlands of gold for you, with studs of silver!
Nang hamla sui aitlaeng neh cak hnathawn khaw n'saii bitni.
12 While the king [is] in his circle, My spikenard has given its fragrance.
Kamah kah rhai-ul tah manghai amah loh a caboei dongah a hmuehmuei la a khueh.
13 A bundle of myrrh [is] my beloved to me, Between my breasts it lodges.
Kamah hlo kah murrah cun tah kamah ham ka rhangsuk laklo ah rhaeh coeng.
14 A cluster of cypress [is] my beloved to me, In the vineyards of En-Gedi!
Kamah taengkah kamah hlo tah Engedi misurdum kah tlansum thaihsu ni.
15 Behold, you [are] beautiful, my friend, Behold, you [are] beautiful, your eyes [are] doves!
Ka cangyaeh tah na rhoep ne, vahui na mik khaw na sakthen ne.
16 Behold, you [are] beautiful, my love, indeed, pleasant, Indeed, our bed [is] green,
Ka hlo nang tah na sakthen ne, mah kah soengca hingsuep khaw naepnoi bal.
17 The beams of our houses [are] cedars, Our rafters [are] firs, I [am] a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys!
Lamphai tah mah im kah tungpum saeh lamtah hmaical tah mah kah paekhop saeh.
