"Ka ṭhian u," tiin Thangthuaman a hrilh a, "Kawlkulh chhûnga lungleng chu kan la chhuak phawt ang. Chu chuan kan khua him a ti ang."

In Mizo culture, the dog is often a companion in hunting and loyalty. Here, the dog acts as a metaphor for Thanga's spirit or his sense of duty. His search for the dog, and the dog's eventual emergence without him, signifies the separation of the soul from the body.

Tûn thlengin, Zawlsei khuaah chuan "Lungleng leh Kawlkulh" tih hi an hrilh fo va,

One day, Thanga set out to walk his dog. He didn't bring the dog, he didn't feed it, but as soon as he stepped out, he was swept away. Thanga searched for his dog too much; in his desperation, he could no longer reach it. The storm drew near, his family followed him out, and they searched for him and the dog immediately.
