POETRY – IX

Kiang rawh, chhîng rawh, kumkhua atân ka ti,
Sathau khawnvar êng tluk chauha en tawi;
Zing daifim tluk leka daih rei lo hi,
Dam lai nun aia ka thlakhlelh zawk chu!

Ţingţang hrui herh mil loh ri ang maia,
Ngaihthlakna beng lam tikhawlo zotu;
Rim hriatna lam tituitang khawlo zo,
Thlàn hrukfaina nawhfe tuitang lo ang!

Hahchawlhna duhawm thim riai riai tawh la,
Hringnun chu lemchangtu khawvel duhawm;
Chapo leh intivei taka lênna,
Mi mawlte’n fakna hlaa an chawimawi!

Thinrimna leh innghirnghonaa khat,
Thihna in angkhat veka min manna!
