1iNgoma yazo iiNgoma, eyekaSolomon.

2Makandange ngokwanga komlomo wakhe, Ngokuba izincokoliso zakho zimnandi ngaphezu kwewayini.

3Ngenxa yevumba elimnandi lesiqhumiso sakho, igama lakho linjengesiqhumiso esithululwayo; yilonto amantombazana ekuthanda.

4Nditsale, sibaleke emva kwakho; ukumkani wandingenisa ezingontsini zakhe; siya kuvuya, sivuye ngawe, sicinge ngothando lwakho ngaphezu kwewayini; Amalungisa ayakuthanda.

5Zintombi zaseYerusalem, ndimnyama, kodwa ndimhle, njengeentente zomsedare, nanjengengubo kaSolomon.

6Musani ukundikhangela ngakuba ndife mnyama, ngokuba nditshe lilanga; Abantwana bam bandiqumbele; bandimisela umveleli wezidiliya; ke sona isidiliya sam asisisindisanga.

7Wena uwuthandayo umphefumlo wam, ndixelele apho walusela khona, Walusela khona umhlambi wakho emini; kutheni ndifanele ndibe njengalowo waphambukayo emhlambini wabahlobo bakho?

8Ukuba akuyazi loo nto, ukuba mhle phakathi kwabafazi, hamba ngomzekelo womhlambi, waluse iibhokhwe zakho ngaseminqubeni yabalusi.

9Ntanda yam, ndikufanisa neenqwelo zokulwa zikaFaro;

10Zinomkhitha izidlele zakho, Umxokelelwane wegolide, Umqala wakho ngamatyathanga.

11Sokwenzela iintambo zegolide ezineentambo zesilivere.

12Xa ukumkani ehleli ngasesithebeni sakhe, iindaba zam zikhupha ivumba lazo.

13Intanda yam sisipha semore kum; uya kulala phakathi kwamabele am ubusuku bonke.

14Intanda yam kum injengentlabathi yeminquba, ezidiliyeni zase-Engedi.

15Yabona, umhle, sithandwa sam; yabona, umhle; unamehlo ehobe.

16Yabona, umhle, sithandwa sam, ewe, unomtsalane; neemandlalo zethu ziluhlaza.

17Imiqadi yendlu yethu yimisedare, Imiqadi yethu yimisipres.
