This is a monologue (personal narrative) by Muhammad Awaiz about his village.

This myth is about the beginning of war and the practice of head-hunting among men. In the beginning, man did not know the art of war. When sent for war men would go and play with the enemy and return. One day while returning from war, a woman who was weaving asked the men 'How was your warfare today'? 'We played in a river (with the enemy) today' replied the men. The woman was enraged on hearing this. She got up, took the weaving stick, and cut the head of a dog lying near her. She said to men in anger 'ants and bees are taking enemy's head. What are you men doing'? The next day men went to war again and returned with an enemy's head. The speaker has since passed away on 5 July 2017 at age 71.

The message of this folk song is to strive for goodness, and live for equality. Sharing is very important in village. Villagers share good things as well as bad things, which creates unity. The goal of the village is to pursue goodness.

This song is about when autumn comes and the mothers get busy in the field. Young girls look for a child to babysit whose mother is generous.

This song is about a dual personality of a wayward woman. It says, I court a wayward girl. The girl would not stay with me till day break. Norengbungna had a relationship with a wayward woman. She would spend time with me in dark, but during the day, she acts as if she doesn’t know me. This wayward woman.

This folk song is about a gentle mother teaching her trade to her child. A gentle mother who asks her child to go to field with her. She says, I ask my child not to work the whole year but only for few days and it will be good for your future. I am calling you so that you learn how to farm.

This song talks about fleeting moments of life. It says, like new buds grow, flowers bloom and whither, so is human. New generation replaces the old one. This cycle of life can be avoided by none.
