LEPCHA SONG in Kalimpong

1.The Lepcha Ladies says to each other that lets go together to fetch water in the traditional water carring cylinder, Podaam from near by river Rulee.
2. Lets offer fresh and clean water to God and goddesses of the river, mountain and forest first then only fill the Podaam with fresh water and keep them in row together on the wall.
3.When small insect known as “Lingdel Tibu” starts singing “Tey! nee! nee!” tune in the forest, sun will shine in the sky positively so let us start to wash clothes and spread out in stones to dry in hot sun, as well as it is an appropriate time to catch small fishes known as “ Tahrum” with traditional fishing rod called “ Fith” in cristal clear shallow water of Rullee.
4.When “Tungkleng Foo” a beautiful mountain bird begins to sing melodiously in far off woodland and signalling the time up so let us pluck the edible fresh and green vegetables from the woodland, collect the fire wood and keep them in the bambow basket called Tunzyang.
Lets return back home with fresh water in Podaam, green vegetable, fish and fire wood for the family members.
