1Hayi, ubunjengodade wethu Owanyayo amabele kama! ukuba bendikufumene phandle, bendiya kukwanga; ewe, andifanelanga kugxekwa.

2Bendiya kukuqhuba, ndikuse endlwini kama, andifundise;

3Isandla sakhe sokhohlo siya kuba phantsi kwentloko yam, Esokunene sakhe siya kundiwola.

4Zintombi zaseYerusalem, ndiyaniluleka, ndithi, musani ukuluvusa uthando lwam, musani ukuluvusa uthando lwam, nide nizivumele.

5Ngubani na onyuka evela entlango, aze ayame ngentanda yakhe? Ndakukhulisa phantsi kom-apile; kulapho wazalelwa khona unyoko; Wakuzalela khona owakuthwala.

6Ndibeke njengomsesane wokutywina entliziyweni yakho, njengomsesane wokutywina esandleni sakho; ngokuba uthando lunamandla njengokufa; Ikhwele libukrakra njengeBhodulabahu; Ukulamba kwalo ngamalahle omlilo.

7Amanzi amaninzi akanakulucima uthando;

8Sinodade wethu omncinane, Akakabi namabele; Kufuneka senze ntoni ngodade wethu xa kuthethwa ngaye?

9Ukuba ludonga, sokwakha ibhotwe lesilivere phezu kwalo; ukuba lucango, solurhangqa ngamaplanga omsedare.

10Ndiludonga mna, namabele am anjengenqaba; ngoku ndandiliqabane elithandekayo emehlweni akhe.

11uSolomon ubenesidiliya eBhahali-hamon; Isidiliya wasinikela kubaveleli; yaziishekele eziliwaka zesilivere ngokwesiqhamo saso.

12Isidiliya sam, esesam, siphambi kwam; Wena Solomon uya kunikwa iwaka, yaye abo bagcina iziqhamo zabo baya kunikwa amakhulu amabini.

13Wena, bahleli emiyezweni, zizihlobo ilizwi lakho; mandiyive.

14Khawuleza, sithandwa sam, ube njengexhama nexhamakazi Ezintabeni zobulawu.
