Song of Solomon 2
1 [SHE] I am The meadow-saffron of Sharon, The lily of the valleys.
O WAU no ka rose o Sarona, A me ka lilia o na awawa.
2 [HE] As a lily among thorns, So, is my fair one, among the daughters!
E like me ka lilia mawaena o na kakalaioa, Pela no ka'u mea i aloha'i mawaena o na kaikamahine.
3 [SHE] As an apple-tree among the trees of the forest, So, is my beloved, among the sons: In his shade, I greatly delighted and sat down, And, his fruit, was sweet to my taste.
E like me ka laau ohia mawaena o na laau o ka nahelehele, Pela ka'u mea i aloha'i mawaena o na keiki kane; Ua noho iho au malalo o kona malu me ka oluolu, A ua ono kona hua i kuu ai ana.
4 He hath brought me into the house of wine, and, his banner over me, is love.
Ua hookomo mai oia ia'u iloko o ka halo ahainu, A o kona hae maluna iho o'u, he aloha no ia.
5 Sustain me with raisin-cakes, refresh me with apples, —for sick with love, I am.
E hooluolu mai ia'u i ka pai huawaina, E hanai mai hoi ia'u i ka hua ohia; No ka mea, ua mai au i ke aloha.
6 His left hand under my head, then, his right hand, embraceth me!
Aia kona lima hema malalo iho o ko'u poo, O kona lima akau hoi, ua apo mai ia'u.
7 [HE] I adjure you, ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or by the hinds of the field, —That ye wake not, nor arouse, the dear love until she 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 aku i ka'u mea i aloha'i, a ala wale mai ia.
8 [SHE] The voice of my beloved! Lo! here he cometh, —leaping over the mountains, skipping over the hills.
He leo ka, no ka'u mea i aloha'i Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana ia, E lele ana maluna o na mauna, E lehai ana hoi maluna o na puu.
9 Resembleth, my beloved, a gazelle, or a young stag, —Lo! here he is, standing behind our wall, looking in at the windows, peeping in at the lattice.
Ua like ka'u mea i aloha'i, me ka anetelope, A me ka dia keiki hoi; Aia ka, ku iho la oia mahope o ko makou pa, E nana ana ma na puka makani, E makaikai ana ma na puka olepelepe.
10 Responded my beloved, and said to me, —Rise up! my fair—my beautiful—one, and come away,
Olelo mai la ka'u mea i aloha'i, i mai ia'u, E ka'u mea i aloha'i, e ko'u mea nani, e ku ae, a e hele mai oe:
11 For lo, the winter, is past, —the rain, is over, [and] gone;
No ka mea, aia hoi, ua hala ka hooilo, Ua pau ka ua, a ua malie;
12 The flowers, have appeared in the earth, the time of the spring-song, hath come, —and, the voice of the turtle, is heard in our land;
Ua ikeia mai na pua ma ka honua; Ua hiki mai ka wa e oki ai, Ua loheia hoi ka leo o ke kuhukuku ma ko makou aina;
13 The fig-tree, hath spiced her green figs, and, the vines—all blossom, yield fragrance, —Rise up! my fair—my beautiful—one, and come away!
O ka laau fiku ua hua mai ia i kona hua opiopio, Ua aala mai ka pua o ka waina. E ka'u mea i aloha'i, e ko'u mea maikai, e ala, a e hele mai oe.
14 [HE] O my dove! In the retreats of the crag, in the hiding-place of the terrace, Let me see thy form, Let me hear thy voice, —For, thy voice, is sweet, and, thy form, comely.
E ko'u nunu, ma na wahi malu o ka pohaku, a me na wahi hunaia o ka pali, E ae mai e ike au i kou helehelena. A e lohe hoi i kou leo; No ka mea, ua oluolu kou leo, a o kou helehelena, ua maikai no ia.
15 [BOTH] Take ye for us, the foxes, the little foxes that are spoiling the vines, —and, our vines, are all blossom!
E hopu aku no makou i na alopeke, I na alopeke liilii, na mea i ino ai na malawaina; No ka mea, ua pua mai ko kakou malawaina.
16 [SHE] My beloved, is, mine, and, I, am, his, he that pastureth among lilies!
No'u no ka'u mea i aloha'i, A nona hoi au; E ai ana oia mawaena o na lilia.
17 Until the day, breathe, and the shadows, be lengthened, Again, liken thyself, my beloved, to a gazelle, or to a young stag, upon the cleft mountains.
A i ka wa oluolu o ka la, a auhee na aka, E huli oe, e ka'u mea i aloha'i. A lilo oe i anetelope, A i dia keiki paha maluna o na mauna palipali.
