< Song of Solomon 5 >
1 [HE] I have entered my garden, my sister, bride, I have plucked my myrrh, with my balsam, I have eaten the honey of my thicket, I have drunk my wine, with my milk: —Eat ye, O friends, Drink, yea drink abundantly, ye beloved!
U A komo au iloko o ko'u kihapai, e ko'u kaikuwahine, e ka'u wahine; Ua ohi au i ko'u mura mea ala; Ua ai au i ko'u waihona meli me ko'u meli; Ua inu au i ko'u waina me ko'u waiu; E ai, e ko'u poe makamaka, E inu, oia hoi, e inu nui, e ka'u poe i aloha'i.
2 [SHE] I, was sleeping, but, my heart, was awake, —The voice of my beloved—knocking! Open to me, my sister, my fair one, my dove, my perfect one, for, my head, is filled with dew, my locks, with the moisture of the night.
Ua hiamoe au. ua ala no nae ko'u naau: He leo ka! o ka'u mea i aloha'i e kikeke ana, [me ka i mai, ] E wehe ae no'u, e ko'u kaikuwahine, e ka'u mea i aloha'i, e ka'u manu nunu, e ko'u mea maemae; No ka mea, ua paapu ko'u poo i ka hau, A me ko'u wili lauoho i na paka ua o ka po.
3 I have put off my tunic, oh how shall I put it on? I have bathed my feet, oh how shall I soil them?
Ua wehe au i ko'u kapa komo; Pehea la wau e komo hou aku ai ia? Ua holoi au i ko'u mau wawae; Pehea la wau e hoopaumaelo hou aku ai?
4 My beloved, thrust in his hand, at the window, and, my feelings, were deeply moved for him:
Ua hookomo mai ka'u mea i aloha'i i kona lima ma kahi hakahaka, A haehae ko'u opu nona.
5 I myself, arose, to open to my beloved, —and, my hands, dripped with myrrh, and, my fingers, with myrrh distilling, upon the handles of the bolt.
Ua ku au iluna e wehe ae no ka'u mea i aloha'i, A kulu ka mura mai ko'u mau lima aku, A kahe hoi ka mura maemae loa mai ko'u mau manamana lima, Maluna o ka mea e paa ai ka puka.
6 I myself, opened to my beloved, but, my beloved, had turned away, had passed on, —My soul, had gone out when he spake, I sought him, but found him not, I called him, but he answered not.
Ua wehe ae au no ka'u mea i aloha'i; Aka, o ka'u mea i aloha'i, ua huli ae ia, a hele aku la; Ua lele ko'u oili i kana olelo ana mai; Ua imi au ia ia, aole nae i loaa, Ua kahea aku au ia ia, aole nae i ekemu mai.
7 The watchmen who were going round in the city, found me, they smote me, wounded me, —The watchmen of the walls, took away my cloak from off me.
Ua loaa au i ka poe kiai i ko lakou hele ana a puni ke kulanakauhale, Ua pepehi mai lakou ia'u a eha au; O ka poe kiai maluna o ka pa, ua kaili ae lakou i ko'u aahu.
8 I adjure you, ye daughters of Jerusalem, —If ye find my beloved, what will ye tell him? That, sick with love, I am.
Ua kauoha aku au ia oukou, e na kaikamahine o Ierusalema, Ina e loaa ia oukou ka'u mea i aloha'i, E hai aku oukou ia ia, ua mai au i ke aloha.
9 [DAUGHTERS OF JERUSALEM] What is thy beloved more than any other beloved, thou most beautiful among women? What is thy beloved more than any other beloved, that, thus, thou hast adjured us?
Heaha kau mea i aloha'i, mamua o kekahi mea i aloha'i, E ka mea maikai mawaena o na wahine; Heaha kau mea i aloha'i mamua o kekahi mea i aloha'i, I kauoha mai ai oe ia makou pela?
10 [SHE.] My beloved, is white and ruddy, conspicuous beyond ten thousand:
O ka'u mea i aloha'i, ua keokeo ia a me ka ulaula hoi, Ua oi nui aku ia mamua o na tausani he umi.
11 His head, is pure gold, —his locks, are bushy, black as a raven;
O kona poo, he gula maemae ia, O kona wili lauoho, na loloa ia, A eleele hoi me he manu koraka la.
12 His eyes, like doves, by the channels of water, —bathing in milk, set as gems in a ring:
O kona mau maka, ua like ia me ko ka manu nunu ma na kahawai, I holoiia i ka waiu, E noho ana me ka maikai.
13 His cheeks, like a raised bed of balsam, growing plants of perfume, —His lips, lilies, dripping with myrrh distilling:
O kona mau papalina, ua like ia me ka mala o na mea ala, A me ka ulaula ala hoi; O kona lehelehe, ua like ia me na lilia e kahe mai ana he mura maemae loa.
14 His hands, cylinders of gold, set with topaz, —His body, wrought work of ivory, covered with sapphires:
O kona mau lima, ua like ia me na komo lima gula, I paapu i ka topaza. O kona opu, ua like ia me ka niho elepani, I uhiia hoi i ka sapeira.
15 His legs, pillars of white marble, founded on sockets of gold, —His form, like Lebanon, choice as cedars:
O kona uha, ua like ia me na kia pohaku keokeo, Ua kukuluia maluna iho o na kumu gula maemae: O kona helehelena, ua like ia me Lebanona, Maikai hoi e like me na laau kedera.
16 His mouth, most sweet, yea, altogether, he is delightful, —This, is my beloved, yea, this, is my dear one, ye daughters of Jerusalem.
O kona waha, he mea ono no ia; Oiaio, he mea makemake nui loa ia oia. Oia ka'u mea i aloha'i, oia ko'u makamaka, E na kaikamahine o Ierusalema.
