Poem
Mya Kabyar
To the snowy mountain range
Hornbillsboast of their faithful blood.
Pink kopsia brightly flower.
At the mountain range
the snow is laying its eggs
with a sense of white longing
blowing forcefully into my chest.
By now
The mountain is covered with snow.

ေအာက္ခ်င္းဌက္တုိ႕သစၥာေသြးေတြႏွင့္ မာန္၀င့္ေတာ့
ေတာင္ဇလပ္ပန္းေတြ ရဲကနဲပြင့္။
ေတာင္တန္းက
ႏင္းေဖြးေဖြးေတြ ဥဥခ်ေတာ့
ေဖြးကနဲျဖဴအလြမ္းေတြ
ရင္ထဲ ရဲကနဲ လြင့္လာတယ္။
ခုခ်ိန္
ေတာင္ေပၚမွာ ႏွင္းေတြ ေ၀ၿပီေပါ့။
