Lyrics :
Haflong Hajik Juba Jang
(The hills of Haflong are tall)
Rigu Luba Jang
( My Rigu is long)
Haflong Hajik Juba Jang
(The hills of Haflong are tall)
Rigu Luba Jang
( My Rigu is long)
Soi! Soi! Hajik Gaphuya
(Sigh! I can’t climb the hills.)
Soi! Soi! Hajik Gaphuya
(Sigh! I can’t climb the hills.)
Let us sacrifice
Let us grow some rice
Drink some rice wine
Dance under the starlight
Let us simplify
Let us read the signs
Everything’s all-right
Decolonize your mind
Mayopha Derao!
(Oh mightiest God!)
Noh Gasaindi!
(Goddess of our home)
Hah Gasaindi!
(Goddess of our land)
Nishi ning naisho dengma
(You will look over us.)
Nishi ning nusho dengma
(You will watch over us.)
Nishi ning naisho dengma, nusho dengma
(You will look over us and watch over us.)
Nishi ning hamhi dengma, ringhi degma
(You will take care of us and teach us.)
Diba Juba Madai,
(Oh biggest and tallest of all Gods!)
Ningkhe jirikladu, hairingladu.
(I’m calling out for you, crying out your name!)
Nishi ning naisho dengma, nusho dengma.
(You will look over us and watch over us.)
Nishi ning hamhi dengma, ringhi degma
(You will take care of us and teach us.)
