¹How beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince's daughter! the joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a cunning workman.

¹Khedap tungneilou ah na khepekte kilawm hina mahmah e, Aw lal tanu: Na pheipi guhtuahte suangmantam bang ahi ua, nasemmi pil khut nasep bang.

²Thy navel is like a round goblet, which wanteth not liquor: thy belly is like an heap of wheat set about with lilies.

²Na lai nou bem bang ahi, huaiah uain hel a kitasam ngei keia: na gilpi huit-buh bum lili pak siat dim a bang hi.

³Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins.

³Na nawite zuktal nou nih phikte a bang ua.

⁴Thy neck is as a tower of ivory; thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bathrabbim: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus.

⁴Na ngawng saiha insang a bang; na mitte Barthrabbim kongpi kianga, Hesbona om tuilite a bang uh; na nak Lebenona insang a banga Damaska lam muhsukna.

⁵Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries.

⁵Na tunga na lutang karmel a banga, na lua sam sandup a bang; huai sampha lakah kumpipa sala matin a om hi.

⁶How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights!

⁶Aw it, kipahna dingin nak kilawmin nak nop hina mahmah chia!

⁷This thy stature is like to a palm tree, and thy breasts to clusters of grapes.

⁷Hiai na san dan tum sing bang ahia, na nawite grep gah bomte bang.

⁸I said, I will go up to the palm tree, I will take hold of the boughs thereof: now also thy breasts shall be as clusters of the vine, and the smell of thy nose like apples;

⁸Tum singah ka kal tou dinga, huai ahiangte ka len ding, ka chi a: na nawite grepgui gahbom bang hi henla, huan na nawi gim apul bang;

⁹And the roof of thy mouth like the best wine for my beloved, that goeth down sweetly, causing the lips of those that are asleep to speak.

⁹Huan na kam uain hoihpenpen bang, ka ngaihnou adia nemtaka pai suk, ihmute muka tolh paisuak.

¹⁰I am my beloved's, and his desire is toward me.

¹⁰Ka ngaihnoua ka hi a, a deihlam kei lam ah a om.

¹¹Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages.

¹¹Hong in, ka ngaihnou, gamah i pai khe dinga; kho neute ah i giak ding.

¹²Let us get up early to the vineyards; let us see if the vine flourish, whether the tender grape appear, and the pomegranates bud forth: there will I give thee my loves.

¹²Grephuan lamah jingkhangin i thou khe dinga; grepgui a pakmumta hia, apakpalh a kihongta hia i va en ding, huan pomgranet a pak kheta hia: huailaiah ka itna ka honpe ding hi.Jawlzongpakin gimnamtui a suak saka, ka kongkhak uah thei manpha chi chih, athak leh a lui a om, nanga dingin ka nakhol khawm, aw ka ngaihnou.

¹³The mandrakes give a smell, and at our gates are all manner of pleasant fruits, new and old, which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved.

¹³Jawlzongpakin gimnamtui a suak saka, ka kongkhak uah thei manpha chi chih, athak leh a lui a om, nanga dingin ka nakhol khawm, aw ka ngaihnou.
