< Song of Solomon 6 >

1 You who are the most beautiful of all the women, where has the one who loves you gone? [If you tell us] which [RHQ] direction he went, we will go with you to search for him.
Napuinaw thung dawk a mei kahawipoung e ka tawncanu, nange na pahren e teh nâ e hmuen koe maw a cei vai. Kaimouh ni nang hoi reirei tawng hanelah, nange pahren e teh, namaw na kâceihlinghlang roi tie hah dei haw.
2 The one who loves me has now come [to me, who am like] [MET, EUP] his garden, He has come to [enjoy my (charms/physical attractions) which are like] [MET, EUP] spices, to enjoy cuddling up to me [EUP, MET], and [kissing my lips, which are like] [MET] lilies.
Ka pahren teh, a pawnaw cat vaiteh, lili peinaw ka la han a titeh, takha thung hmuitui onae koe lah a cei toe.
3 I belong to the one who loves me, and the one who loves me belongs to me; he [enjoys kissing] my lips like [MET] [a shepherd enjoys] taking care of [his sheep].
Ka pahren hanelah kai teh ka o. Ka pahren hai kai hanelah ao. Ayawn dawk ka pouh e lah ao.
4 My darling, you are beautiful, like [SIM] Tirzah [the capital city of Israel] and Jerusalem [the capital city of Judah are beautiful]; you are as exciting [MET] as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners.
Ka pahren e ka tawncanu, nang teh Tirzah kho patetlah na mei ahawi. Jerusalem kho patetlah ngai ao. Taran kâtuknae koe e patetlah taki kawi lah na o.
5 Quit looking at me like that, because your eyes excite me very much. Your [long black] hair [moves from side to side] like [SIM] a flock of [black] goats [moving down the slopes] of Gilead [Mountain].
Nange na mit teh, kai koehoi alouklah kangvawi leih. Ahnimouh ni kai teh na tâ toe. Nange na san teh, Gilead mon hoi ka kum e hmaehu patetlah ao.
6 Your teeth are [very white] like [SIM] a flock of sheep [whose wool] has just been shorn and that have come up from being washed [in a stream]. You have all of your teeth; none of them is missing.
Nange na hânaw teh tui pâhluknae koehoi ka luen e tuhu patetlah ao. Buet touh hai kahmat hoeh. Kamphei e dueng doeh a khe awh.
7 Beneath your veil, your cheeks are like [SIM] the halves of a pomegranate.
Na minhmai ramuknae thung kaawm e na tangboungnaw teh talepaw tangawntangai hoi a kâvan.
8 Even if a king had 60 queens and 80 (concubines/slave wives) and more young women than anyone can count,
Siangpahrang napui 60, a yu ado lah 80, touklek thai hoeh e tanglakacuemnaw ao.
9 [none of them would be like] my dove, who is perfect, you who are your mother’s only daughter, whom your mother considers to be very precious. [Other] young women who see you say that you are fortunate, and the queens and concubines recognize that you [are very beautiful].
Kaie bakhu, kaie ka kuep e, buet touh dueng doeh kaawm. Ahni ka khe e manu ni a pahren poung e lah ao. Tanglanaw ni ahni hah a hmu teh, yawhawi a poe awh. Siangpahrangnu hoi a yudonaw ni hai ahni teh a pholen awh.
10 Who is [RHQ] this woman who is [as delightful] as [SIM] the dawn, as fair/delightful [to look at] as [the light of] the moon, as exciting as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners?
Thapa patetlah ahawi teh, kanî patetlah a sei teh, tarankâtuknae koe e patetlah taki hanlah na o. Amom patetlah ngaihawi laihoi ka khen e teh apimaw.
11 I went down to some walnut trees to look at the new plants that were growing in the valley. I wanted to see if the grapevines had budded or if the pomegranate trees were blooming.
Kai teh misurkung roung hai a roung hoeh hai, Tale a pei hoi a pei hoeh e hai panue hanelah, ka khetyawt hanelah takha koe ka cei.
12 [But] before I realized it, my desire [to make love caused me to be as excited as] a prince riding in a chariot.
Kai ka panue hoehnahlan vah, ka muitha teh, Aminadab leng dawk kâcuie patetlah ao.
13 You who are the perfect one, come back [to us], in order that we may see you! Why do you want to look at this woman who is perfect, like [SIM] you like to watch two rows/lines of people dancing?
Oe Sulammit, bout tho haw. Kaimouh ni nang teh na hmu thai nahanelah bout tho haw. Bout tho haw. Sulammit dawk bang hno maw a hmu awh han vai. Ransahu bokhni touh e patetlah a hmu awh han.
