60— “Mupok kitai, Ingok, 
orang ngumbai kitai 
makai pinang ; 
Di langkau Uinokapai 
Dundang.” 
61 — Jejunok Bandok ang- 
kat ari palan rumah 
Sambevang. 
62 — Udah aku nebang 
gembi di punggang 
titi. 
Udah sregigi, aka ne- 
sau kaban sida ti le- 
laki. 
63— Udah aku nebang me- 
lebu di junggor mung- 
gu ; 
Umbas alai aku nga- 
ding sida ti indu. 
64— “Begiii me kitai Em- 
pari bini Sunang ! 
Angkat me kitai Laing 
sayau tekuing bini

Kekenyong Sempong

65— “Mupok Lemok kitai 
megai tambok sarang

Ngeredungkan tuda 
Sul an, sayau danj an 
nadai belantang; 
Gelagua tuda Linda 
berambau dayang. 
66— Sintak begiii Manyi,

di pati laja pinggang ; 
Nyungkah Jundah, sa¬ 
yau rebah nadai be¬

Nyau ngadu ka pua

“Let us be moving on, 
Ingok, people are asking 
us to chew pinang nuts ; 
“At the hut of Umok the 
father of Dundang.” 
Direct from his resting 
place the Church comes 
Bandok. 
When I felled a gembi tree 
at the end of the bridge ; 
After an interval I took a 
message to all the male 
folks. 
When I felled a melebu 
tree at the promontory on 
the hill ; 
It is time that I touched 
upon the women folk. 
“Speed, speed, Empari the 
wife of Sunang ! 
Up with you Laing the 
wife of Gimang whose 
death was so deeply felt;” 
Sempong the virgin darts 
away ! 
“Let us be moving on Le¬ 
mok and carry our pinang 
and sirih boxes ;” 
Hurriedly rushes off poor 
Sul an ; alas, that she died 
a childless woman ; 
In a great hurry goes Linda 
the virgin. 
Speeds Manyi the grand¬ 
mother of Padi who died 
of a weakness in the loins. 
Abruptly moves Jundah 
who alas ! perished child¬ 
less. 
There they are arranging 
the blankets called pua 
tengkebang. 
66 .—Pua tengkebang means a blanket ornamented by a new pattern. The 
maker must not copy any other.
