The TALAB Poem

Vo Talab!
Koison koipah nahi a,
Nachun najo koi ham ?
Napen nagam vai gam (kol napdoh gam)
Namaang e kapu kapa gamah.
Veerappan angsung a seilen nahi me,
Hibang a nakisel them;
Natha hatna mitin in datmo.
Datmo nan nadim e khangthahte ngailutna nachan.
Nom nasa e nungah ho sakhao sung ah,
Nanglou mong jou lou Nungah ho ;
Nangaijo tauve alungdei cheng sang,
‘Chance’ umtalou Gollhang sum neilou dia.
Leihaopah namtui sel chabang,
Nanam jing e nungah ho kamsung ah ;
Natouna nom, ane kikah uvah ;
Tantih nei lou vin natou jing e nitin in.
Nachung a kisu mang tamta paisa,
Nabat atam e vo! Helaab (Talab)
Nang ngailut na jalla a sei ngamtao,
Achun le azuo angsung a jouthu.
Kapahcha poi natha nei na,
Na laizon Kuva, Raja, Khaini... kot honpeh nang nahi ;
Nason napah Kuva, Raja, Khaini cheng toh,
Chemang taovin napen nao gam ah.
