1 The shayar (song) of shayarayam (songs), which is Shalamah (Solomon - Patriarch). Beloved
2 Let him nashaq (kiss) me with the kisses of his pah (mouth); for your dawad (love) is tawab (good / proper function) than yayan (wine).
3 Your shaman (oils) have a pleasing fragrance. Your sham (name) is shaman (oil) rawaq (poured) forth, therefore the ilamawath (virgins) ahab (love) you.
4 Take me achar (other) with you. Let us hurry. The malak (king) bawaa (bring) brought me into his rooms. Friends We will be gayal (glad) and shamach (rejoice) in you. We will zakar (remember) your dawad (love) more than yayan (wine)! Beloved They are mayashar (right) to ahab (love) you.
