Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Who shall give thee to me for my brother, sucking the breasts of my mother, that I may find thee without, and kiss thee, and now no man may despise me?
1I NA paha oe i like me ko'u kaikunane, Ka mea i omo i ka waiu o ko'u makuwahine! A i loaa oe ia'u mawaho, e honi no au ia oe, Aole hoi au e hoowahawahaia.
2I will take hold of thee, and bring thee Into my mother’s house: there thou shalt teach me, and I will give thee a cup of spiced wine and new wine of my pomegranates.
2A e alakai no hoi au ia oe, a e hookomo ia oe Iloko o ka hale o ko'u makuwahine, ka mea nana au i ao mai. E hoohainu au ia oe i ka waina ala, No ka waina hou o ko'u pomeraite.
3His left hand under my head, and his right hand shall embrace me.
3Aia malalo iho o ko'u poo kona lima hema, A o kona lima akau, ua apo mai ia'u.
4I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that you stir not up, nor awake my love till she please.
4Ke kauoha aku nei au ia oukou, e na kaikamahine o Ierusalema, E hooluliluli ole aku oukou, a e hoala ole aku i ka'u mea i aloha'i, A ala wale mai ia.
5Who is this that cometh up from the desert, flowing with delights, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I raised thee up: there thy mother was corrupted, there she was defloured that bore thee.
5Owai keia e pii mai nei mai ka waoakua mai, E hilinai ana maluna o kana mea i aloha'i? Ua hoala aku au ia oe, malalo iho o ka laau ohia; Malaila, ua hanau mai kou makuwahine ia oe, Malaila, ua hanau mai ia oe ka mea nana oe i hanau mai.
6Put me as a seal upon thy heart, as a seal upon thy arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy as hard as hell, the lamps thereof are fire and flames.
6E kau mai ia'u i hoailona maluna o kou naau, I hoailona hoi maluna o kou lima; No ka mea, o ke aloha, ua ikaika ia e like me ka make; O ka lili, ua paa loa ia e like me ka luakupapau; O kona lapalapa ana, o ka lapalapa ana no ia o ke ahi wela loa.
7Many waters cannot quench charity, neither can the floods drown it: if a man should give all the substance of his house for love, he shall despise it as nothing.
7Aole pio ke aloha i na wai he nui loa, Aole ia e mokuhia e na wai kahe; Ina e haawi aku ke kanaka i ka waiwai a pau o kona hale i lilo mai ke aloha, E hoowahawaha loa ia ia mau mea.
8Our sister is little, and hath no breasts. What shall we do to our sister in the day when she is to be spoken to?
8Ke kaiku wahine uuku o makou, aole ona waiu, Heaha ka mea a makou e hana'i no ko makou kaikuwahine, I ka la i hoopalauia'i oia?
9If she be a wall: let us build upon it bulwarks of silver: if she be a door, let us join it together with boards or cedar.
9Ina he pa oia, e kukulu makou maluna ona he halepakui kala; Ina he puka oia, e uhi makou ia ia i na laau kedera.
10I am a wall: and my breasts are as a tower since I am become in his presence as one finding peace.
10He pa no wau, A o ko'u mau waiu e like ia me ka halekiai: Alaila, ua like au i kona mau maka, me he mea la i alohaia mai.
11The peaceable had a vineyard, in that which hath people: he let out the same to keepers, every man bringeth for the fruit thereof a thousand pieces of silver.
11He malawaina na Solomona ma Baalahamona; Ua hoolimalima aku oia i kana malawaina i ka poe nana i malama; Ua lawe mai kela kanaka, keia kanaka i hookahi tausani apana kala i uku no ka hua waina.
12My vineyard is before me. A thousand are for thee, the peaceable, and two hundred for them that keep the fruit thereof.
12O ka'u malawaina, ia'u no ia, eia no imua o'u, He tausani kau, e Solomona, A elua haneri na ka poe malama i ka hua.
13Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the friends hearken: make me hear thy voice.
13E ka mea e noho ana ma na kihapai, Ua lohe ka poe hoanoho i kou leo; E ae mai oe i lohe au.
14Flee away, O my beloved, and be like to the roe, and to the young hart upon the mountains of aromatical spices.
14E wikiwiki oe, e ka'u mea i aloha'i, E hoohalike ia oe iho me ka anetelope, a me ka dia keiki, Maluna o na mauna ala.
