There was a time
When they used to be with me
My father, mother, aunt, brothers,
But now they are not,
...
There was a time
When they used to be
With me
...
The house is a house
If all are with,
The house not a house
If all are not.
...
It do not,
Do not understand,
Understand,
Why,
...
What did you do coaxing the mother
To be the harbinger of the proletariat movement
And labour movement,
What did you making the revolutionaries
...
My Pain
When I hear about the pains of others
Forget I my own pains
...
O, Boatman,
When will you launch
The boat into the waters
To take me to that side
...
The Tawang Monastery
With the image of the Buddha,
The prayer hall and the library
...
O, Boatman,
How deep the water is,
How the water currents,
I have to go, have to go,
...
They also sing
Who sing but silently,
The are also the singers of Rama
Who sing in whispers.
