When your own governments against you
War is all you've ever known
Corruption undermines everything
Votes are bought and sold
Armed gunmen drive through the streets
AFSPA says they do that you please
Your own military, is adversarial
Who do you turn to for peace?
There's nothing to say
Only to sing
Hing-min-ashi Eikhoi, Apun ba na yaiphare
Hingminashi Eikhoi
Hingminashi Eikhoi, Mit-kap thok-lo mayam
Hingminashi Eikhoi
Hingminashi Eikhoi, Apun ba na yaiphare
Hingminashi Eikhoi
No one sheds tears for Manipur
Or the forgotten North East of India
Hidden away, people shot every day
Quietly one by one
With bullets fired from Western-built guns
Who profits from peace?
Keep going no one will know
When will the winds of change blow?
There's nothing to say
Only to sing
Hing-min-ashi Eikhoi, Apun ba na yaiphare
Hingminashi Eikhoi
Hingminashi Eikhoi, Mit-kap thok-lo mayam
Hingminashi Eikhoi
Hingminashi Eikhoi, Apun ba na yaiphare
Hingminashi Eikhoi
