সনা লৈবাক মণিপুর
কোলোই নঙগী মণিপুর
লাইজনুংগী মণি নারক্কী লৈরাং
পীক্তক্না মঙাল চাউবীনি॥

ঈনুংবুংদগী হৌরকপী
চীংলোন্না পল্লোন খারিবী
শঙলেন ফিজোল থোনবী চানবী হৈবী
চীক্না লেম্না ঙান্থোইরিবী॥

খৈন‐য়াংকোক মওংনি
শুমহৎয়াই ওইবী শক্তমনি
কোরৌগী অহানবা খোঙদাফম ওইরিবী
নচা নাউয়োক নাউকোন হৈবী
খোইরুম মোমোন মীনোক লৈতেংবী॥

সনানা ঈথক হৌবা লম
লুপানা কোঙ্গোল থিনবা লম
শঙবান্না অতিয়ানা ফিজং ওইবী
মণিগুম মঙাল নাইবীনি॥

A golden land Manipur
Thy name Manipur
A pearl from the depth of water
A blossom in the wild
Tiny but sparkling thou art

Risen from depth of a mass of water
Fortified by mountains
Adorned in lush green apparel
Alone thou art in grace solemn

The periphery that of a Yangkok
Thy appearance a winning face
Incident of the first rays of the sun,
A mother so caring of her children
Done up in a smile eternal

A land of golden waves
A land dotted with silvery orbs,
Under the root of blue sky
Like a jewel thou shine.
