¹Qalbigaygu wuxuu la buuxdhaafaa hadal wanaagsan, Oo waxaan boqorka u sheegayaa waxyaalihii aan sameeyey, Carrabkaygu waa sida karraani dhaqsiyo badan qalinkiis.

¹{To the chief Musician. Upon Shoshannim. Of the sons of Korah. An instruction; -- a song of the Beloved.} My heart is welling forth [with] a good matter: I say what I have composed touching the king. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

²Adigu waad ka sii quruxsan tahay binu-aadmiga, Oo bushimahaaga waxaa ka buuxda nimco, Sidaas daraaddeed ayaa Ilaah kuu barakeeyey weligaaba.

²Thou art fairer than the sons of men; grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

³Seeftaadu bowdadaada ha saarnaato, kaaga xoogga badanow, Oo quruxda iyo haybadda lahow.

³Gird thy sword upon [thy] thigh, O mighty one, [in] thy majesty and thy splendour;

⁴Runta iyo camalqabowga iyo xaqnimada daraaddood, Waxaad faraskaaga ku fuushaa haybad adigoo barwaaqaysan, Oo gacantaada midigna waxay ku bari doontaa waxyaalo cabsi badan.

⁴And [in] thy splendour ride prosperously, because of truth and meekness [and] righteousness: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

⁵Fallaadhahaagu waa af badan yihiin, Oo waxay wadnaha ka mudaan boqorka cadaawayaashiisa, Dadyowguna hoostaaday ku soo dhacaan.

⁵Thine arrows are sharp -- peoples fall under thee -- in the heart of the king's enemies.

⁶Carshigaagu, Ilaahow, waa weligiis iyo weligiis, Oo ul caddaaladdeedna waa usha boqortooyadaada.

⁶Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; a sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of thy kingdom:

⁷Adigu xaqnimada waad jeclayd, oo xumaantana waad necbayd, Sidaas daraaddeed Ilaaha Ilaahaaga ahi wuxuu kuugu subkay Saliidda farxadda, oo kuwa ku weheliyana wuu kaa sarraysiiyey.

⁷Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions.

⁸Dharkaaga oo dhan waxaa ka soo carfa malmal, iyo cuud, iyo qasica. Oo qasriyo fool maroodi ah ayaa kaaga farxiyey alaab muusiko xadhko leh.

⁸Myrrh and aloes, cassia, are all thy garments; out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.

⁹Dumarkaaga sharafta leh waxaa ku jira gabdhaha boqorrada, Midigtaadana waxaa taagan boqoradda oo isku sharraxday dahabkii Oofir.

⁹Kings' daughters are among thine honourable women; upon thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

¹⁰Haddaba, gabadhoy, bal i maqal, oo fiirso, oo dhegta soo dhig, Oo weliba waxaad illowdaa dadkaagii iyo gurigii aabbahaa;

¹⁰Hearken, daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; and forget thine own people and thy father's house:

¹¹Markaasuu boqorku quruxdaada jeclaanayaa, Waayo, isagu waa sayidkaaga, oo adna isaga u sujuud.

¹¹And the king will desire thy beauty; for he is thy Lord, and worship thou him.

¹²Oo waxaa halkaas joogi doonta gabadha reer Turos, iyadoo hadiyad wadda, Xataa taajiriinta dadka ku jirtaa waxay kaa baryi doonaan raallinimo.

¹²And the daughter of Tyre with a gift, the rich ones among the people, shall court thy favour.

¹³Gabadha boqorka oo hoyga boqorka joogtaa waa qurux miidhan, Dharkeeda dahab baa lagu dhex sameeyey.

¹³All glorious is the king's daughter within; her clothing is of wrought gold:

¹⁴Waxaa boqorka loo geeyn doonaa iyadoo sharraxan, Bikradaha saaxiibadaheeda ah oo iyada daba socdana waa laguu keeni doonaa.

¹⁴She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of embroidery; the virgins behind her, her companions, shall be brought in unto thee:

¹⁵Waxaa iyaga lagu hoggaamin doonaa farxad iyo rayrayn, Oo waxay soo geli doonaan hoyga boqorka.

¹⁵With joy and gladness shall they be brought; they shall enter into the king's palace.

¹⁶Meeshii awowayaashaa waxaa joogi doona wiilashaada, Kuwaas oo aad dunida oo dhan amiirro uga dhigi doonto.Magacaaga waxaan ka dhigi doonaa mid ka ab ka ab la xusuusto, Sidaas daraaddeed dadyowgu mahad bay kuu naqi doonaan weligood iyo weligood.

¹⁶Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons; princes shalt thou make them in all the earth.

¹⁷Magacaaga waxaan ka dhigi doonaa mid ka ab ka ab la xusuusto, Sidaas daraaddeed dadyowgu mahad bay kuu naqi doonaan weligood iyo weligood.

¹⁷I will make thy name to be remembered throughout all generations; therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.
