Tsaalun chu mandanis gatakar
Tsaalun chu parbatas karun attey

We must bear the lightning and thunder
We must bear the darkness at noon
We must bear the mountain on our shoulders
We must bear the fire we place on our palms
We must bear our bodies milled to dust
We must bear to swallow the poison load together
