Lah ban pule ruh u nong wad ïing thymmai (lok), ym dei ka kynthei, hynrei dei u shynrang. Kito kiba kubur ai jait shalade kim dei kita ki shynrang saiñkur, pynban ki dei ki nong pihuiñ kwah burom, kwah spah, bad shun kur, isih kur, kwah kñieh lut ïa ki jingdon jingem ba la seng ki kmie ki kpa na ka bynta ki khun.
Ka jingbeiñ jingkhoh,ïa la ka kmie nong pun nongkha, bad ïala ki para pyrsa, dei ka jingtim katkum ka riti saiñdur jong u kynrad ha poh ri lum Khasi Jaiñtia. Hangne ka paw ka jingñiew beiñ ïa la ka jong ka kmie nongkha,bad ka hukum blei,kumta nga sngew ban ong to ngin pynjrong ïa la ki jingmut tipthuh jylliew, ban lait na ka sang ka ma, bad ban lait na ka kup muna, khrong ha surok ban ym jah burom ka long bynriew Khasi. U shynrang um ju don sai sohpet, hynrei u dei tang u nong ai symbai, lada dei u symbai ba bha, ne u symbai ba sniew ruh. Ka kmie ka dei ka nong-ai jingim ha la ki khun, namar ka donlang bad u kynrad, ban pynkyrsoi ïa u sai jingim, ïa ki symbai, ba la bet dano dano ruh lada dei u symbai baim bad u symbai bym iap ne u symbai ba sep ruh ka kynthei ka lum lang, ban saiñdur jingim na lyndet.

Namar ka kmie, wat la ka armet, pynban ka lah ban bah wait mohkhiew, kan noh sha kper ne pynthor, ban puh ban dain, nalor ki kam ïing, kam sem bad ka trei khlem salia ei ei.

Te ban ia nujor hapdeng ka kynthei, bad u rangbah, ngin shem ba uta u rangbah 12 bor u long uba kham tlot bor pynban ban ïa ka kynthei.
Lada ngam jylliew shuh shuh, ngin shem barabor, ba ki khun ki kham ieid ïa ka kmie ban ïa u kpa. To ngin ïa pule khyndiat shaphang ki mrad, hato ki wad ia u kpa ne ïa ka kmie. Haba pule ïa kane, ngi shait iohi ba ki khun ki wad sha la ki jong ki kmie, khnang ban ioh buiñ, ym sha u kpa u bym ju ai buiñ ne u bym lum bym lang ïa la ki khun. Ka um buiñ jong ka kmie, lada dei ki mrad ne ki briew, u dei u khaw ba u sai jingim, ban the song ïa kata ka jingieit sha la ka jong ka kmie.
Kiba ai jait sha u kpa, ka dei ka jingniew beiñ ba khraw ïa uta u sai jingieit, lyngba na ka buiñ bad jingjynjar jong ka kmie. Kane ka rukom ioh ka pyni ïa kata ka jinglong u khun jynreiñ. Ka dei ka jingpihuiñ bishni, kwah spah klun la lot, bad ba palat hukum jong ka Mei Mariang (Natural Law). Ban bud tynneng ïa ka pyrthei, bad die duh noh ïala ka tynrai, ka dei ka hukum blei, ba la hiar, bad hikai pateng ha pateng da ki spah bad hajar snem (ki kulong snem). Kiba ai jait kpa, ki dei ki nongñiew beiñ kmie bad baroh ka long kur long jait. Ki dei ki nongdie duh ïa ka thymmei jong ka lei long kur. Kiba ai jait kpa kim dei ki Khasi, lada dei ki Khasi, balei ki thad rong ïa la long kur long jait ha sla jong ka pyrthei. Ka lariti kheiñ kur u Khasi, ka dei hi ba la saiñdur saiñdar da u nongbuh nongpynlong (kynrad) ha la ki longkmie. La nang iohi wat ka pyrthei phet lok, ïa knieh khun hapdeng ka kmie bad u kpa hapoh ïingsaw ïinglieh, bad bun hi ki longkmie ki jop, bad ki ri hi ïala ki jong ki khun ki kti. Ngi ki khasi, ngi dang donbok shibun, namar ba ngi dang pynneh hala i nongrim tynrai, ba la ohdur hi da u kynrad, ba ka jait kan long jong ka kmie.

Bunsien ki kpa khyllah ki shait mih beit ba kata ka Meikha, meikha ym donkam. Ka jingibeiñ kur kynthei, ka dei kata ka pyrsat mynsiem da ki saw lyer, ba yn dup ïoh kurup lum spah shimet marwei.

Pynban kane kan wanrah sha ka ïa knieh spah, ban ïa tyngkhuh bad la ka lei longkur hynrei kynjai ha ka suk, lada duk ne riewspah, namar ki ap bad shah ha ka jingkynoi jong i mei. Tharai ka jing-ai jait sha uta u Kpa, u bymsuh bymthar, bym ai buiñ ai kah, bad uba khlem kha, hato ïa sngew trai ei ïa kata ka kur kpa, ne kumno, phi ki khun to sa da ïa bishar bha.

Namar ka kmie ka ap beit ïa kata ka jingïeng rangbah jong u kynrad na jrong, ban aiti sha ka kmie na tbian, khnang ba yn roi ka long kur long jait, ha ka jingtip khun kha bad jingtip Meikha. U kynrad najrong u ïa snoh rdin bad la ka kmie ba kha, ym bad u kpa bym kha. Ka kmie mar ia dep kha, ka pyiar la ki kti ban thum bad ban ai buiñ ïa la i khun. Khnang ba yn pynsuk ïa la i khun, i da aiti met bad mynsiem, bad i tip ruh kumno ban ai bam khnang ba i khun in koit in khiah, in khlaiñ in heh. I long ruh iba kloi ban aiti la jingim na ka bynta ki khun, khlem jingsalia ei ei.

U nongthaw um ieh jyndat ïa ka marwei, pynban dei ma u na lyndet, ba ka kmie kan suk khlem jingkhuslai wat hapdeng kine ki 9 bnai ruh, haduh ba in da kha syndon ha pyrthei, yn da la dep kha ngi iohi tyngkhrein ba u sai sohpet jong u khyllung, u ïa snoh lang bad ka kmie. Hangne ngim lah ban buhrieh, ne len ia kato ka long trai ki khun bad ki kmie, namar ita i khun i dei i bynta long trai jong ka kmie hi, naduh kpoh wat ynda la mih ha pyrthei. Kumba u kynrad u don ryngkat bad ka mei ramew, u don ryngkat ruh bad ka kmie ha pyrthei.
U kynrad u dei ka jingieit, bad da kane kajuh ka jingieit, u la sam bynta ïa ka mei ramew, bad ha ka kmie,ban kynsoi jingieit ïa baroh ïa ki symbai ba hap ha ki.
Bad kita ki symbai, ki im, ki plung bad ki ïa shong neh ha ryngkat bad ka Mei ramew, kumjuh ruh bad la ki jong ki kmie ba kha.

Baroh hi naduh u khun bynriew, ki mrad ki mreng, ki sim ki doh, dei hi u shynrang uba tyrwa jingieit sha ki kynthei briew, ban ia shongkha haba la biang ka por. Namar ba ïa ki jingthaw ba im baroh la synshar bad pynïaid ryntih hi da ka aiñ jong ka Mei mariang (kynrad) ban long ryntih ha kata ka dur long trai baroh. Ki thei bha briew ïwbih lymphuiñ, ki don ka hok ban pdiang ïa ki symbai ba wan pynhap u shynrang, khnang ba yn heh ka long kur long jait ha pyrthei.
