Song of Solomon 1
1 The Song of songs, which is Solomon’s.
Laa rhoek khuikah Laa he Solomon kah ni.
2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; for your love is better than wine.
Namah hlo tah misurtui lakah then tih a ka dongkah moknah neh kai m'mok lah sue.
3 Your oils have a pleasing fragrance. Your name is oil poured out, therefore the virgins love you.
Namah tah situi bo neh na then pai tih situi loh na ming a puem pai. Te dongah ni hula rhoek long nang n'lungnah.
4 Take me away with you. Let’s hurry. The king has brought me into his rooms. Friends We will be glad and rejoice in you. We will praise your love more than wine! Beloved They are right to love you.
Namah hnukah kai m'mawt lamtah yong mai sih. Kai he manghai loh amah imhman la n' khuen coeng. Namah ah ka omngaih uh tih ka kohoe uh. Nang kah hlo rhoek tah misurtui lakah ka poek uh tih vanat la nang n'lungnah uh.
5 I am dark, but lovely, you daughters of Jerusalem, like Kedar’s tents, like Solomon’s curtains.
Ka muem cakhaw Jerusalem nu rhoek tah Kedar dap banglam khaw, Solomon himbaiyan banglam khaw rhoeprhui mai.
6 Don’t stare at me because I am dark, because the sun has scorched me. My mother’s sons were angry with me. They made me keeper of the vineyards. I haven’t kept my own vineyard.
Khomik loh kai n'hmuh tih ka muem dongah nim kai nan hmuh pawh? Ka manu ca rhoek te kai taengah sai tih misurdum aka hung la kai n'khueh uh. Kamah taengkah ka misurdum ka hung pawt ah.
7 Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where you graze your flock, where you rest them at noon; for why should I be as one who is veiled beside the flocks of your companions?
Ka hinglu kah a lungnah te kamah taengah thui lah. Melam na luem sak? Khothun ah melam na kol sak? Te boel tah balae tih na hui rhoek kah tuping taengah aka kulup bangla ka om?
8 If you don’t know, most beautiful among women, follow the tracks of the sheep. Graze your young goats beside the shepherds’ tents.
Huta rhoek khuiah sakthen te na ming pawt atah boiva kholaeh ah namah cet. Na maae-ca te aka dawn rhoek kah dungtlungim ah luem sak.
9 I have compared you, my love, to a steed in Pharaoh’s chariots.
Ka cangyaeh namah tah Pharaoh leng dongkah ka marhang manu kam puet sak.
10 Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels.
Na kam te aitlaeng neh, na rhawn khaw oidik neh damyal mai.
11 We will make you earrings of gold, with studs of silver.
Nang hamla sui aitlaeng neh cak hnathawn khaw n'saii bitni.
12 While the king sat at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance.
Kamah kah rhai-ul tah manghai amah loh a caboei dongah a hmuehmuei la a khueh.
13 My beloved is to me a sachet of myrrh, that lies between my breasts.
Kamah hlo kah murrah cun tah kamah ham ka rhangsuk laklo ah rhaeh coeng.
14 My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms from the vineyards of En Gedi.
Kamah taengkah kamah hlo tah Engedi misurdum kah tlansum thaihsu ni.
15 Behold, you are beautiful, my love. Behold, you are beautiful. Your eyes are like doves.
Ka cangyaeh tah na rhoep ne, vahui na mik khaw na sakthen ne.
16 Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, yes, pleasant; and our couch is verdant.
Ka hlo nang tah na sakthen ne, mah kah soengca hingsuep khaw naepnoi bal.
17 The beams of our house are cedars. Our rafters are firs.
Lamphai tah mah im kah tungpum saeh lamtah hmaical tah mah kah paekhop saeh.
