Umyeni
1 Sengingenile esivandeni sami, dadewethu, mlobokazi wami;
sengiyibuthile imure yami lesiyoliso sami.
Sengizidlile inhlanga zami loluju lwami;
sengiyinathile iwayini yami lochago lwami.
Abangane
Dlanini, bangane, linathe;
nathani lizidele, lina zithandani.
Umlobokazi
2 Ngalala kodwa inhliziyo yami ivukile.
Zwana! Isithandwa sami siyaqoqoda:
“Ngivulela, dadewethu, sithandwa sami,
juba lami, wena ongelasiyinga.
Ikhanda lami ligcwele amazolo,
inwele zami zilobumanzi bobusuku.”
3 Sengisikhulule isigqoko sami
ngisigqoke futhi na?
Sengizigezile inyawo zami
ngibuye ngizingcolise futhi na?
4 Isithandwa sami sangenisa isandla saso embotsheni yomnyango;
inhliziyo yami yagubhazela ifuna sona.
5 Ngavuka ngayasivulela isithandwa sami,
izandla zami zijuluka imure,
iminwe yami igeleza imure,
phezu kwezibambo zekhiye.
6 Ngasivulela isithandwa sami,
kodwa isithandwa sami sasesisukile, sasesihambile.
Inhliziyo yami yadangala ngoba sesihambile.
Ngasithalaza kodwa ngasiswela.
Ngasimemeza kodwa kasisabelanga.
7 Abalindi bangibona
ngesikhathi bebhodabhoda, behlola idolobho.
Bangitshaya bangilimaza;
bangihlubula bathatha ibhatshi lami,
labobalindi bemiduli!
8 Lina madodakazi aseJerusalema, ngiyaliqonqosela
nxa lisithola isithandwa sami lizasitshelani?
Sitsheleni ukuthi mina sengiyathiswa luthando.
Abangane
9 Isithandwa sakho singcono ngani kulezinye izithandwa
wena omuhle okudlula bonke abesifazane?
Singcono ngani isithandwa sakho kulezinye
osungaze usiqonqosele kangaka?
Umlobokazi
10 Isithandwa sami siyakhazimula sincwaba,
siyabonakala laphakathi kwezinkulungwane ezilitshumi.
11 Ikhanda laso liligolide elicengwe kakhulu;
inwele zaso ziyibulembu,
zimnyama okwewabayi.
12 Amehlo aso anjengamajuba
esezifuleni ezilamanzi,
agezwe ngochago,
amiswa njengamatshe engcebo.
13 Izihlathi zaso zinjengendima yeziyoliso
ezilephunga lamakha.
Izindebe zaso zinjengezimbali,
ziconsa imure.
14 Izingalo zaso yimiqwayi yegolide
elixutshwe ngekhrisolithe.
Umzimba waso unjengophondo lwendlovu olulolongiweyo
lwaceciswa ngamasafire.
15 Imilenze yaso yizinsika zelitshe
eliqinileyo elibutshelezi
elimiswe ezisekelweni zegolide elicengekileyo.
Isithombo saso sinjengeLebhanoni,
njengemisedari yakhona eyebanga laphezulu.
16 Umlomo waso uyibumnandi qobo lwabo;
siyabukeka ngokupheleleyo.
Lesi yiso isithandwa sami, yena umngane wami,
we madodakazi aseJerusalema.
