¹O that thou wert as my brother, that sucked the breasts of my mother! when I should find thee without, I would kiss thee; yea, I should not be despised.

¹Us raj nak lâat ta cuas. Us raj nak riqßuin ta lin naß xattußuc. Cui ta lâat li cuas, naru raj tincuutzß âcuu nak tatincßul saß be ut mâ ani raj tâhobok cue.

²I would lead thee, and bring thee into my mother's house, who would instruct me: I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate.

⁴I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, until he please.

⁵Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? I raised thee up under the apple tree: there thy mother brought thee forth: there she brought thee forth that bare thee.

⁶Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.

⁶Junelic taxak cuânkin saß âchßôl. Chanchan taxak tzßîbanbilak lin cßabaß chiru lâ tel. Lâ rahom xnumta saß inbên. Incßaß naru nincol cuib chiru. Chanchan li câmc. Li rahoc chanchan jun li nimla xam.

⁷Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.

⁷Chixjunil li haß cuan saß li palau incßaß naru tixchup li rahoc. Chi moco naru tixchup cui tâhoy saß xbên chixjunil li haß cuan saß nimaß. Cui junak tixyal xlokßbal li rahoc riqßuin chixjunil lix biomal, xicß chic tâilekß xban nak incßaß naru xlokßbal.

⁸We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts: what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?

⁹If she be a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver: and if she be a door, we will inclose her with boards of cedar.

⁹Cui ta aßan tzßac takayîb raj riqßuin plata junak li cab najt xteram saß xbên. Cui ta aßan oquebâl, takatzßap raj riqßuin li châbil cheß cedro.

¹⁰I am a wall, and my breasts like towers: then was I in his eyes as one that found favour.

¹⁰Lâin chanchanin li tzßac. Ut eb lin tuß chanchaneb li cab li najt xteram. Li cuînk li ninra xtau li sahil chßôlej cuiqßuin.

¹¹Solomon had a vineyard at Baalhamon; he let out the vineyard unto keepers; every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand pieces of silver.

¹¹Laj Salomón cuan jun sîr li racuîmk uvas saß li naßajej Baal-hamón. Quixsiqßueb aj ilol re ut nak nequeßxcßayi li ru li acuîmk, nequeßxkßaxtesi re laj Salomón jun mil chi tumin plata chi xjûnkaleb.
