Solomon Lala 2:1-17
2 “Mitamɔ ŋa nɔ* safron fɔfɔi kɛkɛ,Lili fɔfɔi yɛ jɔi amli.”+
2 “Bɔ ni lili fɔfɔi yɔɔ yɛ ŋmei tsei ateŋ lɛNakai misuɔlɔ lɛ yɔɔ yɛ oblayei* lɛ ateŋ.”
3 “Bɔ ni apol tso yɔɔ yɛ koo mli tsei ateŋ lɛ,Nakai misuɔlɔ lɛ yɔɔ yɛ oblahii* lɛ ateŋ.
Miishwe waa ni mata ehɔɔŋ lɛ shishi,Ni eyibii lɛ ŋɔɔ minaa.
4 Ekɛ mi ba shĩa ni aŋmɛɔ okpɔlɔ yɛ mli lɛ* mli,Ni eflaŋaa ni ma minɔ ji esuɔmɔ lɛ.
5 Okɛ wain yibii keekii*+ ajɔɔ mitsui he;Okɛ apol awaje mi,Ejaakɛ suɔmɔ ewo mi hela.
6 Enine abɛku yɛ miyitso shishi,Ni ekɛ eninejurɔ efua mi.+
7 Yerusalem biyei ee, nyɛkãa mi kitãNyɛkɛ ŋa nɔ adowai+ lɛ kɛ baayelɔyei lɛ akãa mi kitã akɛ:

10 Misuɔlɔ lɛ miiwie, eekɛɛ mi akɛ:
‘Misuɔlɔ tee shi,Miyoo ni he yɔɔ fɛo, ba ni wɔtee.
11 Naa! Fɛ̃i be* lɛ eho.

12 Fɔfɔii lɛ miijie amɛhiɛ kpo yɛ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ,+Be ni akɛsaa tsei ahe lɛ eshɛ,+Ni aanu ŋa mli okpo gbee yɛ wɔshikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ.+

Misuɔlɔ, tee shi ni oba.
Miyoo ni he yɔɔ fɛo, ba ni wɔtee.
14 Ao miloofɔlɔ okpo, bo mɔ ni ohiɔ tɛsaa fɔji amli,+Ni ohiɔ fɔji ni yɔɔ gɔŋkpɔi amli,Hã mana bo, ni manu ogbee,+Ejaakɛ ogbee ŋɔɔ ni ohe hu yɛ fɛo.’”+
15 “Nyɛmɔmɔa osɔi lɛ nyɛhãa wɔ,Osɔi bibii ni fiteɔ wain tsei lɛ,Ejaakɛ wɔwain tsei lɛ egba fɔfɔi.”
16 “Misuɔlɔ lɛ nɔ ji mi, ni mi hu minɔ ji lɛ.+
Eekwɛ etoi+ lɛ yɛ lili fɔfɔii lɛ ateŋ.+
17 Misuɔlɔ, kuu osɛɛ kɛba oya,Tamɔ adowa+ loo baayelɔ*+ yɛ gɔji ni kã wɔteŋ lɛ anɔ,*Dani kɔɔyɔɔ atswa blɛoo yɛ gbi lɛ mli,* dani hɔɔŋ alaaje.
