Translation according to Schwörer: "to sing on the mouth organ" (Naw_ [Mouth organ], meuˆ [to play], k’a mui ̬ [to sing] hkawˇ [sound]); A playing style in which the Laˇhu_ naˆ (Black Lahu) and Laˇhu_ nyiˉ (Red Lahu) mainly recite love songs instrumentally, but also express complaints of homesickness, loneliness or misfortune; The songs are often addressed to particular persons, or have the form of a soliloquy in which the player consoles for longing and grief; The style is not only practised by unmarried boys, but also by girls [Schwörer’s statement regarding the latter practice being slowly accepted by the Laˇhu_ naˆ or by the Laˇhu_ nyiˉ is confusing].
