Kama Inpui nampui bi takaan inn tu ong ngaaknu bakaan

Kama samdan na tangaak phanu badan ongnu bakaan

Kama bangei ma-ngui tamga lung ongnu bakaan

Kale darwe ntun kin khouna

Inzaan lung karung ong ngaaknu apu rwan

Inzaan meiri rai ‘cham ong lamnu api rwan

Inzaan ba lounai rwanle kalom se ‘cham ongnu ani rwan

Inzaaan khatlung tuchaam ong ngaaknu abaan rwan

Inzaan Karing ngei bi karingnu sacham kasam ong ngaaknu apa rwan

Namla da rwe kama-inzaan chwan ntun kin khouna

Choilan darizo kabomnu thiam

Thangta darizo tasengsianu balei

Lung thourizo ane mikphap kasanu badan ga

Bakaan sianuna talei lan lung ongnu dan

Inswan hei bameng inswan kou ting ting

Kama, inzaan han hung lat mak

Ntun kin lungzo sungchan ga ani lungzo
