Song of Solomon 1
Laa rhoek khuikah Laa he Solomon kah ni.
2 Bride: May he kiss me with the kiss of his mouth. Groom to Bride: So much better than wine are your breasts,
Namah hlo tah misurtui lakah then tih a ka dongkah moknah neh kai m'mok lah sue.
3 fragranced with the finest perfumes. Bride to Groom: Your name is oil that has been poured out; therefore, the maidens have loved 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 Draw me forward. Chorus to Bride: We will run after you in the odor of your perfumes. Bride to Chorus: The king has led me into his storerooms. Chorus to Bride: We will exult and rejoice in you, remembering your breasts above wine. Groom to Bride: The righteous love you.
Namah hnukah kai m'mawt lamtah yong mai sih. Kai he manghai loh amah imhman la n'khuen coeng. Rhoihui 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 Bride to Chorus: O daughters of Jerusalem: I am black, but shapely, like the tabernacles of Kedar, like the tents of Solomon.
Ka muem cakhaw Jerusalem nu rhoek tah Kedar dap banglam khaw, Solomon himbaiyan banglam khaw rhoeprhui mai.
6 Do not be concerned that I am dark, for the sun has changed my color. The sons of my mother have fought against me. They have made me the keeper of the vineyards. My own vineyard I have not kept.
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 Bride to Groom: Reveal to me, you whom my soul loves, where you pasture, where you recline at midday, lest I begin to wander after 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 Groom to Bride: If you yourself do not know, O most beautiful among women, then go out and follow after the steps of the flocks, and pasture your young goats beside the tabernacles of the shepherds.
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 O my love, I have compared you to my company of horsemen against the chariots of Pharaoh.
Ka cangyaeh namah tah Pharaoh leng dongkah ka marhang manu kam puet sak.
10 Your cheeks are beautiful, like those of a turtledove. Your neck is like a bejeweled collar.
Na kam te aitlaeng neh, na rhawn khaw oidik neh damyal mai.
11 Chorus to Bride: We will fashion for you chains of gold, accented with reddened silver.
Nang hamla sui aitlaeng neh cak hnathawn khaw n'saii bitni.
12 Bride to Chorus: While the king was taking his rest, my aromatic ointment sent forth its odor.
Kamah kah rhai-ul tah manghai amah loh a caboei dongah a hmuehmuei la a khueh.
13 My beloved is a bundle of myrrh to me. He shall abide between my breasts.
Kamah hlo kah myrrah cun tah kamah ham ka rhangsuk laklo ah rhaeh coeng.
14 My beloved is a cluster of Cyprus grapes to me, in the vineyards of Engaddi.
Kamah taengkah kamah hlo tah Engedi misurdum kah tlansum thaihsu ni.
15 Groom to Bride: Behold, you are beautiful, O my love. Behold, you are beautiful. Your eyes are those of a dove.
Ka cangyaeh tah na rhoep ne, vahui na mik khaw na sakthen ne.
16 Bride to Groom: Behold, you are handsome, O my beloved, and graceful. Our bed is flourishing.
Ka hlo nang tah na sakthen ne, mah kah soengca hingsuep khaw naepnoi bal.
17 Groom to Bride: The timbers of our houses are of cedar; our ceilings are of cypress.
Lamphai tah mah im kah tungpum saeh lamtah hmaical tah mah kah paekhop saeh.
