1 Pa inge on ma kato emeet, ma Solomon el orala.
2 Nga ke kom in arulana ngokla mutuk; Lungse lom uh los liki na wain uh.
Bride: May he kiss me with the kiss of his mouth. Groom to Bride: So much better than wine are your breasts,
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.
fragranced with the finest perfumes. Bride to Groom: Your name is oil that has been poured out; therefore, the maidens have loved 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!
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.
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.
Bride to Chorus: O daughters of Jerusalem: I am black, but shapely, like the tabernacles of Kedar, like the tents 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 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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
9 Kom su nga lungse na pwaye, lumom arulana kato Oana horse mutan ma amakin chariot okoal Tokosra Egypt.
O my love, I have compared you to my company of horsemen against the chariots of Pharaoh.
10 Aunsifom oaskulana ke oan likintupom uh, Ac putati sisken kwawom oana wek saok uh.
Your cheeks are beautiful, like those of a turtledove. Your neck is like a bejeweled collar.
11 Kut ac fah orala soko sein gold ah lom, Ac nawela ke mwe yun silver.
Chorus to Bride: We will fashion for you chains of gold, accented with reddened silver.
12 Ke tokosra luk el oan infukil sel, Ono keng keik uh nwakla in lohm uh ke foul wo.
Bride to Chorus: While the king was taking his rest, my aromatic ointment sent forth its odor.
13 Ke mukul kawuk luk el elongak iniwuk, El oana sie nwana keng orekla ke myrrh.
My beloved is a bundle of myrrh to me. He shall abide between my breasts.
14 El su saok sik el oana sie ros inima uh Su farngelik inima grape in acn Engedi.
My beloved is a cluster of Cyprus grapes to me, in the vineyards of Engaddi.
15 Mutan saok sik, kom arulana oasku, Motom saromrom ke ngetnget in lungse lom!
Groom to Bride: Behold, you are beautiful, O my love. Behold, you are beautiful. Your eyes are those of a dove.
16 Mukul kawuk luk, kom kato na pwaye sik, Nga arulana pwar sum! Mah folfol uh pa ac fah mwe oan kiuktal.
Bride to Groom: Behold, you are handsome, O my beloved, and graceful. Our bed is flourishing.
17 Sak cedar pa srulun loaloa nu ke lohm sesr, Ac sak cypress pa ac srulun siling lasr uh.
Groom to Bride: The timbers of our houses are of cedar; our ceilings are of cypress.
