To rwai ia U Blei, Trai ki bneng bad khyndew
Ia jingstad bakhraw jong U ym lah ban thew
Ki jingthaw baroh ha pyrthei ne ha bneng,
Ki pynpaw ia ka burom jong U Kylleng.

To rwai ia U Blei, Trai ki khlur bad ki bnai
Ha U dap tang Burom, ka Hok bad Jingshai
Kiei kiei baroh kiba ngi iohi,
Ula bun khnang ban ai jinghikai ia ngi.
