Mapāk khangai Ili nganaomi kahai Āvaram
English Translation
When will peace ever come?
The place where I was born
As i stand there taking in the expanse of my land
All i see is my land enshrouded by smoke
How can I ever leave this place
The monsoon is far gone
yet, the rain never stops
As if the rain can feel our heartfelt longings
Is this how life should be?
How I wish to never leave this land that has nurtured me
With every victory in battles, the mourning walk side by side
Who do we say is the real winner!
When deep rooted love can so easily be erased
It is easier to take souls than love
How can i leave/forgot the land that has given me life
How can i leave/forgot the land that has built me
