Pawlpi Kikhenna: Tukum Pawlpi tuamtuam ka hawhna uhah khangno pawlkhatte’n hong gen uh ka bilkha ah gingging lai hi. Nu le pate’n Pawlpi vai buaina om ciangin ko a tate uh hong kuppih se loin Pawlpi dangah hong taipih uh hi. Tua pen ko khangnote lasa khawm, Lai Siangtho sin khawm le lawmta kingai mahmah lai Pawlpi hong kibat loh ciangin komau zong na thuak mahmah hi ung. Tangval khat in, “Pawlpi kitap ka thuakkhak a thumveina hi. Tutung pen kah cih takin ka kap hi. Nidang lai-in ahih leh ka hehna lian lua, kikhawm loin tawlkhat ka om khin a, Pawl kitap pen i puansilh lai balkek tawh kibang hi. I biakna sungah hih bangin kitapna om ahih leh Khris in hong gawmkhawm zo lo hiam, ahih kei leh ei pen a kilomkhat thei lo minam ihi hiam, ci ing,” hong ci hi.

Tua liamna hangin “keimah ginat loh man hi,” cih sangin midangte hangin kigenzaw a, tua in ei le ei kidiksakna, midangte mawhsiatna kampau hong tam mahmah hi.
Tua ciangin Pawlpi pen “kei Pawlpi,” “kei phuhsa” cih kampau hong tam mahmah a, Pawlpi pen Khris in a sisan tawh a phuh hi a, a neipa’ deihna bangin i kem hiam cih ngaihsuthuai hi.

Letsongte bek tawh i nuntak manin “ki-itna, lungdamna, lungnopna, lungduaina, migitna, hoihna, cihtakna, lungnemna, pumpi ki-ukzawhna” kinei lo hi.
