Man is the same [but] of different qualities;
One is worth a pearl, another is not worth a shell.
Sandal is wood, arkhor is wood, [but]
Arkhor is not of any use. 1

"The universe will sustain only if the forests sustain."

Akis ditut narma ta khasay,
Akis jandah palas nay,
Akis ditut barni-nyasay,
Akis tsur ay doran Lhasay.

Arah-balan naga-rada rov
Sadha ror tsuran manz
Muda gharan gora Pandita ror
Ruza hansa ror kuran manz.

Adana archana karay no me Tas
Wuni pyom tsetas greki vizi nun.

Adam akay ta byun byun war —
Ak layi mukhta ta ak layi na har
Tsandun ti dar, arkhor ti dar
Arkhor asi na barkhurdar.
