On Lal Solomon 1
1 Pa inge on ma kato emeet, ma Solomon el orala.
This is Solomon’s Song of Songs.
2 Nga ke kom in arulana ngokla mutuk; Lungse lom uh los liki na wain uh.
Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth! For your love is more delightful than wine.
3 Oasr foul na keng se keim; Ke pacl inem ac fwack uh, nga sifil pacna esamak foul keng sac. Wangin mutan ku in kutongya lungse la nu sum.
The fragrance of your perfume is pleasing; your name is like perfume poured out. No wonder the maidens adore you.
4 Usyu nga in wi kom, ac kut ac fah kaingla; Kom in tokosra luk ac pwenyuwot nu infukil sum. Kut ac fah tukeni ac arulana engan, Nga yukin lungse lom uh yohk liki kutena ma. Pwaye sin mutan uh in lungse kom!
Take me away with you—let us hurry! May the king bring me to his chambers. We will rejoice and delight in you; we will praise your love more than wine. It is only right that they adore you.
5 Mutan Jerusalem, nga ne sroalsroal tuh nga oasku. Nga sroalsroal oana lohm nuknuk in acn mwesis Kedar, Tuh nga kato oana lisrlisr inkul fulat sel Solomon.
I am dark, yet lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.
6 Nimet pilesreyu mu nga sroalsroal, Mweyen faht uh pa tuhneyula uh. Tamulel luk elos tuh kasrkusrak sik Ac sap nga orekma ke ima in grape. Na wangin pacl luk in karinginyu sifacna.
Do not stare because I am dark, for the sun has gazed upon me. My mother’s sons were angry with me; they made me a keeper of the vineyards, but my own vineyard I have neglected.
7 Kom su nga lungse yohk, fahkma nu sik, Kom ac pwen un sheep nutum an in mongo oya? Elos ac mongla ya ke pacl faht uh fol ke infulwen len uh? Efu ku ngan suk kom Inmasrlon un sheep nutin mwet shepherd ngia?
Tell me, O one I love, where do you pasture your sheep? Where do you rest them at midday? Why should I be like a veiled woman beside the flocks of your companions?
8 Ya kom tia etu acn sac, kom su oasku liki mutan nukewa? Fahla ukweot na un sheep uh Twe konauk acn nani nutum an in mongo we Apkuran nu ke lohm nuknuk sin mwet shepherd ngia.
If you do not know, O fairest of women, follow the tracks of the flock, and graze your young goats near the tents of the shepherds.
9 Kom su nga lungse na pwaye, lumom arulana kato Oana horse mutan ma amakin chariot okoal Tokosra Egypt.
I compare you, my darling, to a mare among Pharaoh’s chariots.
10 Aunsifom oaskulana ke oan likintupom uh, Ac putati sisken kwawom oana wek saok uh.
Your cheeks are beautiful with ornaments, your neck with strings of jewels.
11 Kut ac fah orala soko sein gold ah lom, Ac nawela ke mwe yun silver.
We will make you ornaments of gold, studded with beads of silver.
12 Ke tokosra luk el oan infukil sel, Ono keng keik uh nwakla in lohm uh ke foul wo.
While the king was at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance.
13 Ke mukul kawuk luk el elongak iniwuk, El oana sie nwana keng orekla ke myrrh.
My beloved is to me a sachet of myrrh resting between my breasts.
14 El su saok sik el oana sie ros inima uh Su farngelik inima grape in acn Engedi.
My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms in the vineyards of En-gedi.
15 Mutan saok sik, kom arulana oasku, Motom saromrom ke ngetnget in lungse lom!
How beautiful you are, my darling! Oh, how very beautiful! Your eyes are like doves.
16 Mukul kawuk luk, kom kato na pwaye sik, Nga arulana pwar sum! Mah folfol uh pa ac fah mwe oan kiuktal.
How handsome you are, my beloved! Oh, how delightful! The soft grass is our bed.
17 Sak cedar pa srulun loaloa nu ke lohm sesr, Ac sak cypress pa ac srulun siling lasr uh.
The beams of our house are cedars; our rafters are fragrant firs.
