Ko Kong ko Thei, ha sngap Khyndiat,
Kyntien husiar ba phin ym liat;
Ngin ïasneng lang, ngin ïapyni,
Ba kan nang im ka Ri Khasi.
U Khatarbor u rem ha phi,
Phin shu shim rai lah kut ma ki;
Tang shu ïapbiej tang shu ïapmat,
Ki Rang Khasi kin jaw ummat.
Ki Sengbhalang ha phi ki rem,
Lada ma phi phim ïakit lem;
A! Ki bapli duh thiah duh dem,
Jingsuk ïaphi ki kwah ai lem.
Hynrei maphi lada phi biej,
Ïa u mama phi shoh jingieid;
Longlehnohei jingtrei shitom,
Ha ka bakut kin shu shah bom.
Phi dei kiba donbok shisha,
Ka bor burom phi ïoh paka;
Lada maphi phim kyndit bynriew,
Shynrang Khasi kin shah bynthiew.
Ynda phin don ki Khun ki Kti,
Wat mut ba kin long ki Khasi;
To da husiar ïoh kim lah lait,
Na ka ksuid heh, ka ksuid dowry.
Mynta phi don ka Bor tylli,
Ba phin pynher ki mynder-ri;
Phin tang shu ong “he’s so lovely”,
Phin shah pynher kylla ha ki.
A! Jingkordit lada phim stad,
Haba khatduh phin shah die tad;
Khlieh sniang Ïewduh shongdor sanspah,
Khlieh Thei Khasi shongdor shipiah.
