alai ngadiing orang ti 
lama danjan ; tau me 
kami digegelar kita

As for us — the parts of the 
reception room directly 
under the eaves—you can¬ 
not blame us, Grandmot¬ 
her Tuan with the beau¬ 
tiful regular teeth, when 
you recall to mind those 
who died long ago ; we 
are only aware that you 
betitled us the strong 
youth who distributes to 
die guests large cups of 
rice-spirit (born on a bra¬ 
zen tray). 
As for us — the seats — you 
cannot blame us. Oh 
Grandmother Raj in Tan¬ 
dok, when you recall to 
mind those who rotted 
long long ago; we are 
only aware that you be¬ 
titled us the place to lean 
on (just like) a person’s 
shoulder when he is 
stretched out at length on 
the floor. 
As for us—the great re¬ 
ception rooms—you can¬ 
not blame us, Oh Grand¬ 
mother Menyawai, thou 
with the long drawn out 
cry, when you recall to 
mind those who died ; we 
are only aware that you 
betitled us Sempar Tuai 
who made the mat with 
the wide plait. 
As for us—the long recep¬ 
tion rooms — you cannot 
blame ms, Oh Grand¬ 
mother jelu Remaung, 
with the sweetest of 
voices, when you recall 
to mind those who were 
cut off long ago ; we are 
only aware that you 
betitled us the place of 
the altar surrounded by 
split bamboos. 
-19. — The mat with the wide plait is used for offerings to the gods.
