"Kyllalyngkot" da Reaia Phira


Lyngngoh shisha ban shem

ba ka jingthrang jong u phria

kan kynduh bad ki shyieng

jong ki iing jong ngi-

Sngew kumba ki ktien

khubor ruh

ki bud sur ia u,

ki kyrhuh bad ki pang.


Kumba u jumai u bym ju patiaw

ia ka jingsheptieng kaba ring

na ki sla kjat jong ki briew

haba ki wad ki jaka rieh na u-

Kumta ki ummat shngiam

ruh ki tuid.

khlem sngap iano iano ruh.


Haba ka lyer pjah ka lyngaid

bad ka sum hapoh ka ding shawla;

ban wallam ia ka jingsngewtmang

jong ka mula

kaba la pynap ha khap jong nga-

Kumta ruh,

ka sngi ka kyan lyngba ki

dpei ba jngi ha suiñ kum

ki jingmut ba snai.


Hynrei ha ki por ba ju sawa

tang ka jingjarjar ka miet,

nga ju iohsngew diang diang

ia ka jingsyaid kaba per

ha ka um kaba sah

ha ki thwei ka

mynsiem jong nga...

bad nga kynmaw

ieid eh ia phi.
