< Song of Solomon 7 >

1 How beautiful your feet appear in your sandals, prince's daughter! The curves of your thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a master craftsman.
NANI wale kou mau wawae iloko o na kamaa, e ke kaikamahine alii! O ke apo o kou mau uha, ua like ia me ka lei o ka a-i, Ka mea a na lima o ka poe akamai i hana'i.
2 Your navel is like a round bowl; may it never lack mixed wine. Your belly is like a mound of wheat encircled with lilies.
O kou piko me he kiaha poepoe la ia, Aole nele i ka waina ala. O kou opu me he pua palaoa la, Ua nakinakiia i na lilia.
3 Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.
O kou mau waiu, ua like me na anetelope elua, He mau mahoe anetelope laua.
4 Your neck is like a tower of ivory; your eyes are the pools in Heshbon by the gate of Bath Rabbim. Your nose is like the tower in Lebanon that looks toward Damascus.
O koa a-i, ua like ia me ka halekiai niho elepani; O kou mau maka, me na punawai o Hesebona, Aia ma ka ipuka o Beterabima; O kou ihu ua like ia me ka halekiai o Lebanona, Aia kona alo i Damaseko.
5 Your head is on you like Carmel; the hair on your head is dark purple. The king is held captive by its tresses.
O kou poo maluna ou, ua like ia me Karemela, O kou lauoho maluna o kou poo, me he mea ulaula la; Ua paa ke alii iloko o na keena maluna.
6 How beautiful and how lovely you are, my love, with delights!
Manomano kou nani, a me kou maikai, E ka'u mea i aloha'i, no ka olioli!
7 Your height is like that of a date palm tree, and your breasts like clusters of fruit.
O kou kiekie, ua like ia me ka laau pama, A o kou mau waiu me he mau huhui waina la.
8 I said, “I want to climb that palm tree; I will take hold of its branches.” May your breasts be like clusters of grapes, and may the fragrance of your nose be like apricots.
I iho la au, E pii au iluna o ka laau pama, A paa aku au i kona mau lala. Ano, e lilo mai kou mau waiu me he mau huhui waina la; A o ke ala o kou ihu e like me na ohia.
9 May your palate be like the best wine, flowing smoothly for my beloved, gliding over the lips of those who sleep.
A o ke aluna o kou waha me ka waina maikai no ka'u mea i aloha'i, e kahe oluolu ana, A olelo ae la na leheleho o ka poe hiamoe.
10 I am my beloved's, and he desires me.
No ka'u mea i aloha'i owau, A o kona makemake, eia no ia'u.
11 Come, my beloved, let us go out into the countryside; let us spend the night in the villages.
Ina kaua, e ka'u mea i aloha'i, e hele kaua i ke kula, E noho kaua ma na kauhale.
12 Let us rise early to go to the vineyards; let us see whether the vines have budded, whether their blossoms have opened, and whether the pomegranates are in flower. There I will give you my love.
E ala ae i ke kakahiaka ma ka malawaina, e ike i ka ulu ana o ka waina, E nana i ka pua ana o ka waina, A me ke kupu ana o ka pomeraite; Malaila au e haawi aiiaoei kou aloha.
13 The mandrakes give off their fragrance; at the door where we are staying are all sorts of choice fruits, new and old, that I have stored up for you, my beloved.
Ua ala mai na dudima, A ma ko makou mau ipuka, aia na hua ono a pau, He mea kahiko, a me ka mea hou, O na mea au i waiho ai nou, e ka'u mea i aloha'i.
