Song of Solomon 7

1 Zinhle kakhulu inyawo zakho emanyathelweni,
awu ndodakazi yenkosana!
Amathebe mahle anjengamatshe aligugu,
ingathi abunjwa kuhle yingcitshi.
2 Inkaba yakho yindingilizana yesiphathelo esihle
esihlala sigcwele iwayini elixutshiweyo.
Ukhalo lwakho luyinqunjana yengqoloyi
ezingelezwe yizimbali.
3 Amabele akho anjengamazinyane amabili,
njengamaphahla empala.
4 Intamo yakho injengomphotshongo wempondo zendlovu.
Amehlo akho ayiziziba zeHeshibhoni
eduze lesango laseBhathi Rabhimi.
Impumulo yakho injengomphotshongo waseLebhanoni
ukhangele eDamaseko.
5 Ikhanda lakho lingumqhele kuwe njengentaba iKhameli.
Inwele zakho zingumceciso wobukhosi;
inkosi ithunjiwe ngamagoda azo.
6 Wamuhle bantu njalo uyathokozisa,
wena sithandwa, ngezintokozo zakho!
7 Uluthi lwakho luthe klwi, njengesihlahla sephamu,
lamabele akho anjengelixha lezithelo.
8 Ngathi, “Ngizakhwela esihlahleni sephamu;
ngizaziphatha lezozithelo zalo.”
Sengathi amabele akho angaba njengamaxha evini,
amakha okuphefumula kwakho abe njengama-aphula,
9 lomlomo wakho ube njengewayini elidlula wonke.
Umlobokazi

Sengathi iwayini lelo lingaya kusithandwa sami,
ligeleze kakuhle ezindebeni lasemazinyweni.
10 Ngingowaso isithandwa sami,
silangathela mina.
11 Woza, sithandwa sami, kasihambe siye emaphandleni,
kasiyolala emizini.
12 Kasihambe ekuseni ezivinini
ukuyabona ingabe amavini asenunkula na,
ingabe amaluba amaphomegranathi awo aseqhakazile
lapho ngizakupha uthando lwami.
13 Izihlahla zamamandraki zikhupha iphunga elimnandi,
kuthi emnyango wakwethu kube lezibiliboco zonke
ezintsha lezindala,
engikubekele zona, sithandwa sami.
