Kan thenawm lawkah hian tleirawl pakhat a awm a, a hming chu Joni a ni. Kum 10 chuang lai inthenawm tawh kan nih avangin ka hre chiang em em a. Rilru tluang leh fel tak a ni. Nu hnap mai a ni a, a chetla hi ka thlir fo mai thin. Hlim thei tak a ni a, a nui mawi hle bawk a ni. Khawlai velah hmuh tur a tlem em em a, inah a tap chawt a ni ber. A fai thei em em a, a taima hle bawk.

JONI WROTE ME A NOTE

Tuk khat chu kawtkaia thingpui ka in laiin, ka lam panin a rawn kal a. Ka lo thlir reng a, lehkha-them; a humna avanga chuar tih hriat tak hi a kut dinglamah chuan a lawr a, ka hmu thei a ni. Inthlahrung ang reng takin engmah sawi lem chuang lovin chu lehkha chu min pe a. A tlan let chawn chawn a.

Lehkha them chu ka en thuai a,

"Jimmy, ka hmangaih che. I tan chauh ka invawng tlat ang. Ka hria, ka la naupang rih a, mahse ka puitling ve thuai dawn alawm. Khawngaihin min lo nghak hram rawh."

Ka chhiar nawn leh a, mak tihna in ka khat a ni ber. Ka hlim rualin, ka rilru chu a buai hle thung. Hmanhmawh takin Joni te in lam panin ka kal nghal a. Joni chu ka va hmu a. Ka thusawi lai chuan ka mitah tak min en a, a mittui a luang zawih zawih bawk a.

"Joni, khawngaihin tap suh. Zawi zawiin min la theihnghilh ve mai ang. Tunah kum 15 i ni a, kei 22. A rem rih lo a ni, ka nghah theih che ka ring lo," ka ti a.

HAUNTING MY MEMORY

Hun a liam a, kum a vei a. Keipawh ka hna lam thil avangin kan khua chu chhuahsan a, khawpui lam zawkah khawsak a lo tul ta a. Khawpuiah chuan kan khawsa ren rawn a, kan khaw lam chu ka ngai hle tho mai. Hna lamah buai viauin, hah hle thin mah ila, ka rilru ah thil pakhat mi mawlh tlattu ka nei thung si. Ka hriatrengna ah chuan chiang zetin Joni kha a lo lang leh thin a. A thusawi kha ka hre chhuak leh fo thin. Ka rilruah a ri tlut tlut mai si a, ka vei a ni ta ber mai. Engdang mah ka ngaihtuah thei lova, ani chauh chu ka rilruah a awm a. Ka hriat loh karin ka lo hmangaih hman ta ni berin Ka hria. Ka ngaiin, ka thlahlel em em a ni. Amah ka thlakhlelhna chuan min tur chhuak ta nge nge a. A laka ka rilru puthmang leh ka duhzia hrilh thuai turin ka rilru ka siam a. Inneih puiah sawmin ka bula hruai ngei ka tum a ni. Kan khaw lama haw turin ka inbuatsaih ta nghal a.

Ka thawmhnaw ka khung fel a. Kan khaw lam pan thlawhna-ah chuan ka chuang ta a. Thlawhna ka chuan chhung zawng chuan ka rilru a buai letling leh hle thung lawi a. A chanchin ka hre zui ta si lo nen, engtin tak chuan min lo chhang ang maw?

Kan khua kan thlen hnuah chuan rang takin Joni te in lam pan chuan ka tlan nghal thuai a.

Mahse,

Ka beisei loh thil ka va tawng ta thung si. Ka thil hmuh chuan min hliam takzet a, hmana Joni tahna hmunah ngei khan kei ka tap ve leh ta thung zawk a ni.

MY TEARS DROP

Joni chu ka va hmu ngei alawm. Mahse, thil a danglam zo ta. A thusawi lai chuan ngawi rengin a mitah ka en ve kar thung a. Ka biangah chuan dan rual lovin mittui a luang zung zung bawk a. Ka hamhaih a, hrilh ka hai takzet. Ka inchhir em em a, pawi ka ti bawk si.

I thlahrung tak chungin Joni chuan, " Jimy, khawngaihin tap suh. Zawi zawiin min la theihnghilh ve mai ang. I kalbo atang khan kum 5 lai a vei tawh asin. Tunah chuan i thianpa John a nen khan kan intuah rem tawh asin," a ti a.

Ka bing mup a, ka khaw hmuh a fiah zo ta lova. Beidawng takin ka tin ta hnak hnak a.

A hnuaia hi a hla thu kan dah ve a, he hla lungkuai zet hian mite ngainat a hlawh takzet zawng a ni e.

Don't Cry Joni

Jimmy please say you'll wait for meI'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with loveforever true

Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known her
I guess 10 years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say

Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with loveforever true

Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her tear drops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say

Joni, Joni please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You're just fifteen
I'm twenty two
And Joni I just cant wait for you

Soon I left our little home town
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words kept haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me

Jimmy please say you'll wait for meI'll grow up some day you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true

I packed my clothes
And I caught a plane
I had to see Joni
I had to explain
How my heart was filled
With her memory
And ask my Joni if she'd marry me

I ran all the way
To the house next door
But things weren't like they were before
My tear drops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say

Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years since you've been gone Jimmy
I married your best friend John
