A Meitei Women Crusader
Chongtham Ongbi Subadani Devi *
Glorious the Crown Princess
Elder sister of King Chandrakriti
Her Grace the Tampha
A Meitei woman you were.
Sitting on the wolsat
Administered the realm
A Yuvaraj you here
My eyes are not the witness
But history is alive
In Black and White
With the sun in the sky.
Hyper active public women
A leader of the locality
Joining hands men and women
Unity for strength
In the battle fields as well
Has shown the valaour
The encounter with fury
A women even though.
Evergreen the story
The history of ancestors
Pride of the Motherland
Her Grace the Tampha
The crowned Princess
The elder sister of King Chandrakirti
A Meitei woman you were.
