< On Lal Solomon 8 >

1 Nga ke in tamulel se luk pa kom, Ac in nina kiuk ah pa katiti kom ke titi lal uh, Na nga fin sun kom inkanek uh, Nga lukun ngokya motom ac mwet uh ac tia suk lah efu.
Oh that thou wert as my brother, That sucked the breasts of my mother! Should I find thee without, I would kiss thee; And they would not despise me.
2 Nga lukun uskomla nu lohm sin nina kiuk, Kom in tuh luti nu sik ouiyen lungse uh. Nga lukun sot pac wain keng ac wo emah uh nu sum, Ac kom ac pula sronin pomegranate sunuk uh.
I would lead thee, bring thee into my mother's house; Thou wouldest instruct me: I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine, Of the juice of my pomegranate.
3 Nga ilung lac paol lasa, Ac lac paol layot kafisyuyang nu yorol.
His left hand would be under my head, And his right hand embrace me.
4 Wulema nu sik, mutan Jerusalem, Lah kowos fah tia oru kutena ma in lusrong pacl in pwar lasr uh.
I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, ...Why should ye stir up, why awake [my] love, till he please?
5 Su mutan se fahsru yen mwesis ah me, Fungfungla ke mwet se ma el lungse yohk? Verse Lun Mutan Se Nga okaskomyak ye sak apple soko ah, Yen se ma kom tuh isusla we ah.
Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, Leaning upon her beloved? I awoke thee under the apple-tree: There thy mother brought thee forth; There she brought thee forth [that] bore thee.
6 Kaliya insiom tuh in tia lungse kutena mwet sayuk; Nimet kom kafisya sie pacna mwet nu iniwom sayuk. Lungse uh ku, oana misa; Ac nunkeyen lungse uh fokoko oana kulyuk uh. Lungse ac ngutyak oana sie e firir Ac lalelik oana sie e lulap ma ac liksreni esukak acn uh. (Sheol h7585)
Set me as a seal upon thy heart, As a seal upon thine arm: For love is strong as death; Jealousy is cruel as Sheol: The flashes thereof are flashes of fire, Flames of Jah. (Sheol h7585)
7 Kof uh tia ku in fwela, Ac wangin pac sronot ku in konela. Tusruktu mwet se fin ke molela lungse ke kasrpal, Nunak in sufan mukefanna pa el ac eis kac uh.
Many waters cannot quench love, Neither do the floods drown it: Even if a man gave all the substance of his house for love, It would utterly be contemned.
8 Oasr tamtael fusr se wiasr, Ac srakna srik tetel. Mea kut ac oru nu sel Fin oasr mukul ke payuk sel?
We have a little sister, And she hath no breasts: What shall we do for our sister In the day when she shall be spoken for? —
9 El fin oana sie pot Na kut ac musaela sie tower silver fac. Ac el fin oana sie srungul Na kut ac fah nawella ke sak cedar.
If she be a wall, We will build upon her a turret of silver; And if she be a door, We will enclose her with boards of cedar.
10 Pot soko pa nga, Ac titi luk uh pa tower kac. Mukul se nga lungse uh etu lah ke nga welul uh Nga konauk insewowo ac misla.
I am a wall, and my breasts like towers; Then was I in his eyes as one that findeth peace.
11 Oasr ima in grape se lal Solomon In acn se pangpang Baal Hamon. Oasr mwet ima ma orekmakin acn sac, Ac kais sie selos moli nu sel ke sie tausin ipin mani silver.
Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon: He let out the vineyard unto keepers; Every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand silver-pieces.
12 Solomon, eis ipin silver tausin lom an, Ac sang luofoko nu sin mwet ima uh. A funu nga, oasr ima in grape luk sefacna!
My vineyard, which is mine, is before me: The thousand [silver-pieces] be to thee, Solomon; And to the keepers of its fruit, two hundred.
13 Mutan saok sik, lela nga in lohng pusrem inima uh me, Mwet kawuk luk elos soano in lohng ke kom ac kaskas.
Thou that dwellest in the gardens, The companions hearken to thy voice: Let me hear [it].
14 Kuiyuk, yume nu yuruk oana soko gazelle, Oana soko deer mukul fusr fineol uh, yen mahsrik keng uh kap we.
Haste, my beloved, And be thou like a gazelle or a young hart Upon the mountains of spices.
