Absaloma

Satu: Blessed choir

Absaloma chuan a pa dodalin,
A chhiatna zawngin tlanbo san mahse;
Pa hmangaihna chuan a zui zel a,
Absaloma chu a dam lo'm maw?

Aw, Absalom! ka fapa Absalom!
I aiah hian thi thei zawk ila aw!
Chutin keipawh hmangaihna vangin,
Min rawn zawng chhuak in nun min pe ta.

Israel te lal ropui Daviba chu,
A hmelma hmangaih vangin a tap a;
Vanlal ropui chuan nang leh kei pawh,
Thinlung tapin min ko "khawnge in awm?"

A va thuk em Lalpa hmangaihna chu,
Sual hmun thim bera bopil tawh hnu te;
Faa vuah tlak lo anchhedawng hnu,
Ka thuamah min bel ta savun kawrfual.

Misualber pawh min hmangaihtu Lalpa,
Vahbo sanin tluk san thin mah ila;
Boralna rama leng zawng te pawh,
Hmangaih ir chuktuah in min la fawp duh.
