Lwiimbo Lwa Solomoni 5:1-16
5 “Ndanjila mumuunda wangu,+Omucizyi wangu, nabwiinga wangu.
Ndacela tununkilizyo twamuro alimwi amicelo yangu iinunkilila.+
Ndalya cimbulwe cabuci cangu alimwi abuci bwangu;Ndanywa waini amukupa wangu.”+
“Amulye, nywebo nomumvwana!
Amunywe akukolwa luyando ndomutondezyanya!”+
2 “Ndiloona, pele moyo wangu ulalanga.+
Ndamvwa kukonkomona kwamuyandwa wangu!”
“Kondijalwida, Omucizyi wangu, omuyandwa wangu,Onziba yangu, yebo ookwaangu, oonyina kampenda!
Nkaambo mutwe wangu wateta akaambo kamume,Masusu aangu ateta akaambo kamalosi aamasiku.”+
3 “‘Ndacisamununa kale cisani cangu.
Sena ndicisame alimwi?
Ndasamba kale kumaulu.
Sena ndaabisye alimwi?’
4 Mpoonya muyandwa wangu wakagwisya janza lyakwe akapulo kakucijazyo,Eelyo moyo wangu wakaduntaana akaambo kanguwe.
5 Ndakabuka, kuti ndimujalwide muyandwa wangu;Maanza aangu akali kulosya-losya tununkilizyo twamuro,Ayalo minwe yangu yakali kungwenga mafwuta aamuro,Akali kulokela azijatilizyo zyacikulukulu.
6 Ndakajalwida muyandwa wangu,Pele walo wakaluunkide, wakalisakene.
Ndakanyongana naakaunka.
Ndakamuyandaula, pele tiindakamujana pe.+
Ndakamwiita, pele tanaakandivwiila pe.
7 Balindizi ibakali kweendeenda mumunzi bakandijana.
Bakanduuma akundicisa.
Balindizi bamalambo bakandinyanga mulembo* wangu.
8 Ndikonkezya ndinywe, nobana basimbi bamu Jerusalemu kuti:
Ikuti naa mumujane muyandwa wangu,Mumwaambile kuti luyando lwandijaya.”
9 “Yebo omukaintu weebeka kapati akati kabamakaintu,Ino muyandwa wako ubainda buti bayandwa bamwi?
Ino muyandwa wako ubainda buti bayandwa bamwi,Cakuti watukonkezya boobu?”
10 “Muyandwa wangu ulamweka alimwi ulasalala;Nguulibonya kapati akati kabantu bali 10,000.
11 Mutwe wakwe uli mbuli ngolida, ngolida mbotu kapati.
Masusu aakwe ali mbuli mitabi yakakunka* iiyuuna,Alasiya mbi mbuli cikwangala.
12 Meso aakwe ali mbuli nziba zili kutugelo twamaanzi,Izisamba mumukupa,Zikkede mumabali-bali aacizyiba cizwide.
13 Imasaya aakwe ali mbuli mubundu watununkilizyo,+Zilwi zyamaluba aanunkilila.Milomo yakwe ili mbuli mpana, ilosya-losya mafwuta aamuro.+
14 Maanza aakwe nzibulunge zyangolida, zibikkidwe mabwe aakulusolito.
Ida lyakwe lili mbuli meja aabazovwu aacumbidwe alimwi aabikkidwe mabwe aasafilo.
15 Maulu aakwe ali mbuli misemu yabbweluuma iinjizyidwe muzikkazikilo zyangolida mbotu kapati.
Ciwa cakwe cili mbuli Lebano, ncibotu kapati mbubonya mbuli zisamu zyakkedari.+
16 Mulomo* wakwe ulalweela lwe,Alimwi zyoonse zijatikizya nguwe zilakondelezya.+
Ooyu nkakalungu kangu kaamoyo, ngomuyandwa wangu, nobana basimbi bamu Jerusalemu.”
