MANGTHRA MANGTHRA

 

Mangthra, mangthra, inthrena,

Mangthra, mangthra, damtakin aw (2)

 

Goodbye, goodbye, we depart,

Goodbye, goodbye, may God bless you (2)

 

Ieng tin ngai ve che maw khawvel hi,

Lungril lenruol hlimten ei lengna;

Sam ang threna maw a lo ni,

Ngai thiem an tak ngei ie.

 

Do you ever think of this world,

Where we live joyfully with dear friends?

It’s a land where we bid farewell,

Oh, it’s hard to behold.

 

Sam ang inthrena hmasuonin maw,

Hmangai lungdit hlimten ei lo leng;

Chawnban vawra ei hlim lai ni,

Hunin tuo rem nawk sien.

 

We share happy days with our dear ones,

Waiting a day when we say goodbye;

How I wish time will bring back again,

The happy days gone by.

 

Ei mamaw ngei- varna, hrietthiemna:

Hnuoi hi threna ram a lo ni si !

Chatuon ram ei va ngai ngei aw,

Angelhai lengna chu.

 

We need a heart of understanding

To know this world- a land of farewells;

Oh, how I long for eternity,

Angel’s heavenly home.
