LAWMVUAL NGAIHNA
1. Nasiang ua omden thei hile’ng uut ing,
Kholhlai ni khenni omlou hileh maw;
Gibang khenna gitlouhna toh teh ing,
Hinna a bei bang kholhkhawm lai hunte mualliam.

Chorus:
Machiang suan ni heina peuh tangbang damni,
Heina dangzong siamsin thawn suaklou dingin;
Thian in siamhen pheiphung tualniam lou dingin;
Phungching di’n loubang ma honhuai hen aw.

2. Ka lunglai gil ah Gou bang in vom ing,
Lungngaih khual lou a i nuih khawmlai ni;
Huihkhi in ka bil ah hong huau siausiau,
Hun nuam sawlbang hei laini te hon phawng e.

3. Lawmvual ngai ka he na pan sawlbang vul,
Lungzuan lunglen mai maw ka tan chi ing;
Ma loubang suanlou theilou i hi zong,
Ngilhni omlou siamsin nunnuam kholh lai ni.


LONGING FOR FRIENDS’ COMPANY
1. How I long to be amidst of you, forever,
I wish it lasts what we had and shared together;
The cruelty and irony of life,
Disintegrate our company with one sigh!

Chorus:
We move forward no matter where we are,
Not fruitless even should we part company;
May God place us not on a lowly dwelling,
His embracing hand always providing abundantly.

2. Thus, I treasure them in my heart and down,
The laughter, the joy, the music and the noise around;
The wind whistles and whispers how once,
I had such joys with my dear colleagues!

3. The thought is what I now possess,
The company of friends I missed;
Sad but sweet memories they make,
Which forever will I cherish.
