Hushed woods

                  HUSHED WOODS

Where’re those bulky woods that I’ve rejoiced?
Those graceful tunes now all repressed.
Maker of being, here lies our bruising,
Contrive our strive in the Power of Christ.
 Tech are dawning; Greens are dying.
When we’ll ever see, “The World in Crying”?
Tears in haven, Tears in haven.
When we’ll ever flee from Tears in haven?


Honeysuckles, does your nectar still grow under your string?
Or now you’ve turned your joy out into fling?
I remember the taste and I remember my face,
How jolly I’ve spent your band so grace.


It’s you and me, who’re born in free.
Take up the vim to spark the glim.
Dust we’ve come and dust we’ll go.
So why are we batty when we’ll go empty?
                                                   : Hamthan Konyak

Definition of Morung(Bachelors' Dormitory)

Morung Etymology and Definition of Morung The Morung is a bachelors' dormitory. Many scholars try to bring out the root-word of Morung. Noted Anthropologist Haimendorf suggests that the word Morung is an Assamese origin. Naga writers, like Horam, Takatemjen and Rev. Yamyap suggest to it as an Ahom origin. According to Konyak's tradition the word Morung has been derived from the 'mis-interpretation' of one's vocabulary. It may be mentioned that Ahoms had a 'RANG-GHAR' in Sivasagar.
