Soromoni' 3
1 Maka kenagera tafeni'are mase'nena, navesima nentoa ne'mofonkura tusiza hu'na antahintahia nehu'na, ava'nafina agrikura hakena vano hu'noanagi onke'noe.
All through the night [while I lay] on my bed, I longed for the one whom I love. I desired for him [to come], but he did not come.
2 Anama onke'na amanage hu'na hu'noe, menina oti'na rankumapine neone kampi vano nehu'na, nagu'aretima hu'na navesima nentoa ne'mofonkura hakena vano hugahue. Anage nehu'na otina hakena vano hu'noanagi onke'noe.
[So I said to myself], “I will get up now and walk around the city, through the streets and plazas, to search for the one whom I love.” [So] I [got up and] searched for him, but I could not find him.
3 Anante kumama kegava hu'za vanoma nehaza vahe'mo'za eme nage'za eri fore hazage'na, navesima nentoa nera ke'nazo hu'na zamantahige'noe.
The city watchmen saw me while they were patrolling/walking around the city. [I asked them], “Have you seen the one whom I love?”
4 Kuma'ma kegavama nehaza vahetmima zamagate'ma nere'na, nagu'areti'ma hu'na navesi navesima nehua nera ome ke'na erifore hutena, ome agazafe'na anukinena avre'na nenrera nontega vu'na agrama amu'enema huno kasenante'nefinka vu'noe.
As soon as I walked past them, I found the one whom I love. I clung to him and would not let him go until I had brought him to my mother’s house, to the room where my mother had conceived me (OR, where I was born).
5 Vemo'a huno, Jerusalemi mofaneramimota gazeliema nehaza afu'ene, afi diamo'ma nehia zante tamagesa nentahita, navesizana azeri ora otigosune huta huvempa hunenkeno vuno kna fatgore vino.
You women of Jerusalem, solemnly promise me, while the does and gazelles [are listening], that you will not disturb us while we are making love until we are ready to quit.
6 E'i iza ka'ma kopintira kumo'ma rentikenoma eaza huno kumagumagu huno ne-e? Hagi merema nehaza mna zane, frenkinsensie nehaza mna zane maka mnanentake zama feno vahe'mo'zama zagore'ma netrazankna'ma nehiana iza'e?
Who is it that is coming from the desert, who is [stirring up dust] like a column of smoke from burning myrrh and incense [made from] spices [imported by] merchants?
7 E'i Solomoninki'za, mase tafe'are mani'nege'za zamafunte zafa hu'za neazageno Israeli vahepima ugagotama hu'naza harafa sondia vahera, 60'a vahe'mo'za azeri amu'nompi ante'za avre'za neaze.
It is [Solomon], [sitting in] his portable chair surrounded by 60 bodyguards chosen from the strongest/greatest warriors in Israel.
8 Ana maka vahe'mo'za bainati kazinteti'ma ha'ma hu'arera vugota hunazanki'za, ha'ma hu'zana antahikasi'naze. Ha' vahe'mo'zama kini ne'ma kenage'ma eme ahe'zanku'ma kegava hunentaza vaheki'za mago magomo'za bainati kazina zamote anaki tragotetere hu'naze.
They all have swords and they [all] (are trained to/know well how to) use them. Each one has his sword [strapped to] his side and [is prepared to defend Solomon from] dangers that might occur even during the night.
9 Hanki Lebanoni mopafinti'ma eri'za e'naza zafanu kini ne' Solomoni'ma manisia trara tro hu'naze.
King Solomon [commanded his servants] to make that portable chair for him; [it was made] with wood from Lebanon.
10 Ana sesenkumofo noma antesgama hu zafa Silvareti tro nehu'za, amagenama ante kaziga golireti eri fagaginente'za, fitunke tavravereti tafera masinte'naze. Jerusalemi mofanemo'za ana konararia tro huntenazankino, tusiza hu'za ana konararigura zamavesinte'naze.
The [canopy that covered it] was (held up/supported) by posts made of silver, and the back of the chair was [embroidered] with gold. The seat/cushion was covered with purple cloth lovingly made/woven by the women of Jerusalem.
11 Atiramita kini ne' Solomonina eme keho. A'ma masimigeno tusi musema hia knare'ma, nerera'ma ami'nea kini fetori antanino ne-e.
You women of Jerusalem, come and look at King Solomon wearing the headdress that his mother put on his head on the day when he was married, the day when he [SYN] was very happy.
