Numidang wairamda koiba chatluba

/ /

Gari mataduga Bamon Leikai gi thong-gi khungamduga
Eina Tombada hai', kumnaba
Ma' kumtharagadi thougatpa ngamgani eina
Ta'Enao workshop tagi second hand da leijaba eigi scooterna
Moan ani-animuk loomlaba akhoinibu poo-thang-ngamdrabada
Khekna houna makhol thoklak khibani motorduna turel mapanduda.


Tapna thouwi amuk, yotki thong mathaktuda
Thoudei amuk, laimai haifet manaba lambifaoba
Khang-houdana huinao kharana tunglomdagi khonglak-khi
— Bow bow! Bow bow!
Khangprek hek khang-ngi 
Tongkhat ke touramba Tombasu phan laona chong-thakhi.


Huinao mayam adudagi machin tongba, maya chouba amana laorakkhi:
"Akhoi hui ni, nakhoi kanano?"
Kallapna mahakna amuk Tomba romda onsinduna samtharak-khi:
"Nahak keidoubagi gari dagi kumthahourino?   
Nahak keidoubagi gari da amuk tongkhatlibano?"
  
Tangaifadana tamjakhi akhoigi awaba
Khangbikhi akhoigi wari, hui oijarabasu meeron lonbanina.
Akhoini amuk thouwi scooter, waa amata ngangnada






Kurak langtaiba

April su yourakle
Kalensu loiinarakle
Sajibudi yumda leihoure
Ching kabasu kaokhare
Thajadaba marakta mangkhare
Thajadaba ngak' ngai-khare


Tha masingna langtaiba
Matamna manaba
Khoidou saogatpana ahenba
Achumbana aranba,
aranbana achumba


Tatkhrasanu
Chelliba matamgi echel
Mangkhrasanu
Matamsigi wakhal.


Anouba chahi
Anouba mayon
