spending summer vacation

A poem-dedicated to my dear friends

           Mangtha U

Hun hlutak a inher mitin tan
I hmang tangkai e  nang erawh chuan;
An au ruai thin I sakhming miten
A chhelai siamthatu i ni e.

Hnam hming tihmawi kan zonunzia hi
I chhawm nung reng e lenrual zingah;
An sawi  naupang rilru thianghlim hi
Awmin a lang reng thin i nunzia ah.

Entawn tur min hnutchhiah i nunah
Entawn tur min hnutchhiah zirlaiah;
"LALPA tih hi finna bul a ni."
Tih min hrilh chiangtu nang ngei hi i ni.

Min fuihtu leh min tihlimtu chu,
Nang ngei hi i ni kan nghilh lon'g che.
Hawihhawmna leh rilru zau tak kha,
Vawng reng ang che-tih kan duhsak a che.

Kan nghilh lon'g e kan hlimlaini te
In nunzemawi tak min zirtirte,
Kan vawng reng dawn e fam chan thlengin
Hmangaihna leh duhsakna nen-MANGTHA(U)!

[NB: I composed this poem in an hour to express my feelings to my dear freinds in their farewell program]
