This song is not just a message to the Khasis but to the world. Its a love story, that can only come from a mothers heart.
the following lyrics may not be from the original composition-- but happy to share it with you, just as the class eight students of Brookside Adventist Higher Secondary School, Shillong, would perform on their annual meet 10th November 2011. We will be happy to share the practice session with full translation ...very soon.
U SIER LAPALANG
1. K o Lapalang phrangsngi jong nga
Kumba tyngshaiñ u Mangkara ;
Khlem sngap ki `tien sangsot I Mei
Me shem lanot ha ka pyrthei
Na snieh pyrthei shaei me phet?
Sa tang marwei nga sah khunswet ;
Haba na nga kynrem me khlad ,
Dohnud sngewsih nga im sohsat.
2. N aduh ba kha nga ri kyndong
Ha ka ba ïaid bathiah bashong
Nga bud kylleng ha kti ha kjat
Ba mynsaw ïa phi kan ym ngat
Nga kdang ban peit tang ïa u khun
Ba paw khmat eh hapdeng ba bun
Ym don nga I ba phieng ba phuh
Kat u khun nga naduh haduh
3. K o khun nga ong ynnai leit kiew
Sha ri khasi sha ri ki briew ;
Shong khop, ha la ri them ri thor,
bam la u khah bam la u nor.
Ngin bam da u jangew jathang,
Baroh shi lyiur baroh shi tlang ;
Pyn ban kynrem na nga me khlad,
Marwei nga Swai nga jaw ummat.
4. L a shad ka 'nam shalyngor.
Me pat ha kti u khat ar bor ;
Na me ki dum ka sngi u bnai,
Sha nga, kumno pat men wan phai?
Nam pliang dusmon ïa me u dung,
U nam tabla u ban na krung ;
Pyllup, me pat rang bah ryngkuh,
Ummat aiu, ngan sait khadduh.
5. K ynshreng me phuh ha jan i Mei,
Mynba me ïeng ha la Rympei ;
Mynta , na lyndet khlur me sngap,
Jing iam ka kmie ba shem ka pap.
Wow! La shet ka 'tieh pongdeng,
Ïa ka rynieng u Kynrem Reng ;
Wow! La kjit u nam sarang ;
Ïa ka mynsiem u lapalang.
Wow! La shet ka 'tieh pongdeng,
Ïa ka rynieng u Kynrem Reng ;
Wow! La kjit u nam sarang ;
Ïa ka mynsiem u lapalang.
