Where from our forefathers
Of Naga Nation come?
From the valley of Lishan,
Which we cannot forget.

Abstract

Compassionate travellers of South.
Did you hear any news as you travel?
For the wind of death is blowing;
Slaying the young braves and the damsels from the South!
Stop fighting and love one another:Brothers, Sisters and Friends.

Abstract

One day the morung leader decided to marry. But his proposal was rejected. So he bought a charm to entice the lady. After handling the charm, he shared his smoking pipe to all the bachelors in the morung. Therefore they were all charmed and became devoted to their leader. As a result they even forgot their parents and did not return back home. They followed their leader in all ways. One day the leader rested for nine days and so did the young men. They refused to obey their parents and ceased all works. Since nothing could convince them, the parents decided not to give them any food and let them starve for nine days. Meanwhile their leader also could not provide them any food and as days went by they slowly started to forget human food. Now as he could not meet to their needs, the leader told the young men that since they have all forgotten human food, they will turn into birds. Everyone agreed and started the preparation. In the evening, they went to the women selling cottons with the instruction that each man will buy cotton from one woman only.
