Mele a Solomona 2
1 O WAU no ka rose o Sarona, A me ka lilia o na awawa.
I am a meadow flower of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.
2 E like me ka lilia mawaena o na kakalaioa, Pela no ka'u mea i aloha'i mawaena o na kaikamahine.
As a lily among thorns, so is my love among the young women.
3 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.
As an apricot tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men. I sit down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit is sweet to my taste.
4 Ua hookomo mai oia ia'u iloko o ka halo ahainu, A o kona hae maluna iho o'u, he aloha no ia.
He brought me to the house of wine, and his banner over me was love.
5 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.
Revive me with raisin cakes and refresh me with apricots, for I am weak with love.
6 Aia kona lima hema malalo iho o ko'u poo, O kona lima akau hoi, ua apo mai ia'u.
His left hand is under my head, and his right hand embraces me.
7 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.
I want you to swear, daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles and the does of the fields, that you will not awaken or arouse love until she pleases.
8 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.
There is the sound of my beloved! Listen, here he comes, leaping over the mountains, jumping over the hills.
9 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.
My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag; look, he is standing behind our wall, gazing through the window, peering through the lattice.
10 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:
My beloved spoke to me and said, “Arise, my love; My beautiful one, come away with me.
11 No ka mea, aia hoi, ua hala ka hooilo, Ua pau ka ua, a ua malie;
Look, the winter is past; the rain is over and gone.
12 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;
The flowers have appeared in the land; the time for pruning and the singing of birds has come, and the sound of the doves is heard in our land.
13 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.
The fig tree ripens her green figs, and the vines are in blossom; they give off their fragrance. Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come away.
14 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.
My dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the secret clefts of the mountain crags, let me see your face. Let me hear your voice, for your voice is sweet, and your face is lovely.”
15 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.
Catch the foxes for us, the little foxes that spoil vineyards, for our vineyard is in blossom.
16 No'u no ka'u mea i aloha'i, A nona hoi au; E ai ana oia mawaena o na lilia.
My beloved is mine, and I am his; he grazes among the lilies with pleasure.
17 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.
Go away, my beloved, before the soft winds of dawn blow and the shadows flee away. Go away; be like a gazelle or a young stag on the rugged mountains.
