1. Haya1 he, I will sing without sparing the wonders of the great Emperor Ngangngoi Yoimongba and his younger brother Yoiheiton Taothingmang who lived soon after the Almighty God had created the world. 2. Meitei queen Namoinu Ahongbi, a daughter of the House of Nongbal2, gave birth to Ngangngoi Yoimongba and his younger brother Yoiheiton Taothingmang. Lembi Funmanai was also her daughter.
3. Emperor Ngangngoi Yoimongba says, "My brother Yoiheiton Taothingmang, the rivers mother created long ago are (choking3) there. 4. We brothers, you and I, let's go and clean them. 5. You start cleaning the river from its catchment area of the Iril, Fatlou where gods had once settled and then great men were born, and proceed down through the great plain of Kolbira Sameithang, and then the plain which queen Hangoi Kolthingnurabi reigned over, and then the place Pakhangba reigned over. 6. Those parts are not stony, and there are not many rocks to move or break. 7. The river is not wide there either. 8. It does not bear many trees, plants and branches. 9. The stream is not deep, the waters don't run fast throwing itself in the air like the hairy feet of the goat when it smashes itself against rocks or other obstructions. 10. Not many trees do not grow into in shallow bed, no dead logs with lichens on them obstruct its way. 11. It wont be that hard work to clean the river in those parts. 12. It would be like extracting salt from a salt mine. 13. So, you begin there and sweep down that stony region.
