A golden land Manipur
Your name Manipur
A pearl from the depths of the water
A flower in the wild
Tiny but sparkling you are.
Risen from the depths of the oceans
Fortified by the mountains
Adorned in lush green robes
Alone thou art in solemn grace.
The outskirts of a Yangkok
Your appearance is a winning face
The first rays of the sun,
A mother so caring for her children
Wrapped in an eternal smile.
A land of golden waves
A land of silver orbs,
Under the blue sky
Like a jewel, you shine.
