Song of Solomon 8
1 Oh that you were like my brother, who nursed from the breasts of my mother! If I found you outside, I would kiss you; yes, and no one would despise me.
I NA paha oe i like me ko'u kaikunane, Ka mea i omo i ka waiu o ko'u makuwahine! A i loaa oe ia'u mawaho, e honi no au ia oe, Aole hoi au e hoowahawahaia.
2 I would lead you, bringing you into the house of my mother, who would instruct me. I would have you drink spiced wine, of the juice of my pomegranate.
A e alakai no hoi au ia oe, a e hookomo ia oe Iloko o ka hale o ko'u makuwahine, ka mea nana au i ao mai. E hoohainu au ia oe i ka waina ala, No ka waina hou o ko'u pomeraite.
3 His left hand would be under my head. His right hand would embrace me.
Aia malalo iho o ko'u poo kona lima hema, A o kona lima akau, ua apo mai ia'u.
4 I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, that you not stir up, nor awaken love, until it so desires.
Ke kauoha aku nei au ia oukou, e na kaikamahine o Ierusalema, E hooluliluli ole aku oukou, a e hoala ole aku i ka'u mea i aloha'i, A ala wale mai ia.
5 Who is this who comes up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? Beloved Under the apple tree I awakened you. There your mother conceived you. There she was in labor and bore you.
Owai keia e pii mai nei mai ka waoakua mai, E hilinai ana maluna o kana mea i aloha'i? Ua hoala aku au ia oe, malalo iho o ka laau ohia; Malaila, ua hanau mai kou makuwahine ia oe, Malaila, ua hanau mai ia oe ka mea nana oe i hanau mai.
6 Set me as a seal on your heart, as a seal on your arm; for love is strong as death. Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a very flame of the LORD. (Sheol h7585)
E kau mai ia'u i hoailona maluna o kou naau, I hoailona hoi maluna o kou lima; No ka mea, o ke aloha, ua ikaika ia e like me ka make; O ka lili, ua paa loa ia e like me ka luakupapau; O kona lapalapa ana, o ka lapalapa ana no ia o ke ahi wela loa. (Sheol h7585)
7 Many waters can’t quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love, he would be utterly scorned.
Aole pio ke aloha i na wai he nui loa, Aole ia e mokuhia e na wai kahe; Ina e haawi aku ke kanaka i ka waiwai a pau o kona hale i lilo mai ke aloha, E hoowahawaha loa ia ia mau mea.
8 We have a little sister. She has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister in the day when she is to be spoken for?
Ke kaiku wahine uuku o makou, aole ona waiu, Heaha ka mea a makou e hana'i no ko makou kaikuwahine, I ka la i hoopalauia'i oia?
9 If she is a wall, we will build on her a turret of silver. If she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
Ina he pa oia, e kukulu makou maluna ona he halepakui kala; Ina he puka oia, e uhi makou ia ia i na laau kedera.
10 I am a wall, and my breasts like towers, then I was in his eyes like one who found peace.
He pa no wau, A o ko'u mau waiu e like ia me ka halekiai: Alaila, ua like au i kona mau maka, me he mea la i alohaia mai.
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal Hamon. He leased out the vineyard to keepers. Each was to bring a thousand shekels of silver for its fruit.
He malawaina na Solomona ma Baalahamona; Ua hoolimalima aku oia i kana malawaina i ka poe nana i malama; Ua lawe mai kela kanaka, keia kanaka i hookahi tausani apana kala i uku no ka hua waina.
12 My own vineyard is before me. The thousand are for you, Solomon, two hundred for those who tend its fruit.
O ka'u malawaina, ia'u no ia, eia no imua o'u, He tausani kau, e Solomona, A elua haneri na ka poe malama i ka hua.
13 You who dwell in the gardens, with friends in attendance, let me hear your voice!
E ka mea e noho ana ma na kihapai, Ua lohe ka poe hoanoho i kou leo; E ae mai oe i lohe au.
14 Come away, my beloved! Be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices!
E wikiwiki oe, e ka'u mea i aloha'i, E hoohalike ia oe iho me ka anetelope, a me ka dia keiki, Maluna o na mauna ala.
