I am from the South India. I started to search this song after hearing Instagram reels. Now I am a big fan of North East songs. After hearing this particular song I feel like this has to cross borders and get to more people. I'll try my best to share this song to all my colleagues and friends who love exploring languages and music. It's true that most of us are not exploring new things like language, culture, tradition etc. We all have only one life. Try to make it a beautiful one by exploring the unexplored. Thank you 🙏🏻

As an Indian I am ashamed to admit that until I read the comments I thought these were foreigners dressed in Indian attire. Not once did it cross my mind that these could be my people!!!! My heart goes out to North East Indians. Kudos to you for your tolerance of "educated" "open minded" jerks such as myself who share "their" country with you. Sorry on behalf of those jerks. And sorry for all that you have to endure in "North" India. Great song and music. Don't know a word. But very soothing.

I miss my home... My manipur. I listen to this song and remember the time. Ilive in Sikkim now because of the war. Whoever reads this..... Please make peace... Not war. We won nothing by war.... But we lost everything. It's like a bad dream.

I’m from Kerala... I’m addicted to this song... What a beautiful composition...

Almost a year ago a friend of mine called Kretina introduced me to this piece! I still come here for peaceful and soulful Voices of the both singers! Love from Pakistan buddies ❤️

From Assam. Love spreads…. Awesome track….83times I listened in one go…

OMG itna sundar gana north east mei b talent ki kami nahi hai..lov from Arunachal Pradesh..😍😍😍

I am an Assamese .. I didn't understand the Lyrics but the music struck my Heart ❤️ totally .. Soulful music at its best .. Manipuri Music is World Class .. Promote more at the International Platform 🌼🌼

One of my best friend is from Manipur and she had send me this song to listen and now I’m really in love with this song.

Love and appreciation for Manipuri industry from Arunachal🤍🤍

I'm in love with manipuri song i understand a bit bt i have more manipuri song on my Phone love from meghalaya Shillong

Wow both sound like angels from heaven..and she is so beautiful💚 I'm addicted to Manipuri music from Orissa

Came across this song only today and i love it so much. Love from Nagaland and peace to manipur.🙏

this is a song about courtship. and they are often sad songs. a traditional one in every sense, from lyrics to composition. the girl teasingly or rather coly asks her beloved, using the seasonal metaphors - the comings and goings et al. then challenges the unassuming boy to prove his innocence, for he is the one with all the answers. the cause, like clouds and the rain. love and the pain. the initiation and consummation. and the boy, caught in the web, responds to every riddle in the simplest, most straightforward manner. in the very first verse, the girl compares love to seasonal rain which brings heartache and pain. but again, upping her ante, she continues, why so merciless. double entendre! the boy, well aware of the tactics, asks - why are you waiting then, counting every moment and day of my arrival. it's nothing but natural, he says only to reassure her. but she blames/labels him a cowardice, saying - for such a handsome guy, you don't have the courage. she even invokes the very nature of manliness, comparing it to how steadfast a tree could stand against all odds, and how the very purpose of a girl's existence is usurped by his mere indignance. and, she continues to wax lyrical... proving her innocence, even though she is clearly the one playing her so-called game here's one, in the next verse... she, feigning ignorance, says she can't even muster the courage to look at him, and his arrival, like the looming rain, makes her heart shiver thinking about everything that could happen. she also invokes how a poor.. the boy, presenting his stance once again, says he's for an eternity even if he's poor. dramatics. he even assures that their meeting is divine, orchestrated by the gods themselves. eventually, she concedes and joins the boy in a sing along. and they repeat it. but the girl, for one last time, raises that doubting finger. we have that story. for me, this song is something. and the voices are angelic. and as the description said... but the song says something else... don't know how many time we listen to this song daily. thanks everyone... mami sami song is there, and this one.

Love from Bodoland! From Bodo community! Nice song i always listen this song

Unkind clouds of monsoon why did you bring the rain. Seeing my darling coming for me Why are envious about it? Counting the days and waiting for me. From the top of the hill looking for me to come. To calm your eagerness the clouds are blowing. To flirt with you, I called him( clouds) To divert his attention from me you block my darling path. With the charm of Almighty he protect my beloved What a petty attitude Ohh you unkind clouds of monsoon The father like brothers are happy about the monsoon for their crops. But I'm afraid of not seeing you (bcoz of the rain). But those men (who are fathers) are gone for the fields My naughty heart missed you When the rain shower the lakes will flooded. The thought that you will come home, will make me tears. Unkind clouds of monsoon. My darling to make you happy, I had prepared our crops To protect you from the storm, I've build a house. The Almighty distinies us to be together. I have decided to bring you home, my darling. I will be loyal, faithful and won't go anywhere without you. I didn't fear and mind anything if you're on my side I will be loyal, faithful and won't go anywhere without you. I didn't fear and mind anything if you're on my side My dear, the Almighty destinies us to be together I can't wait to see you. Ohhh, unkind clouds of monsoon.

I don't understand the lyrics but I just love the Manipuri songs n addicted Lots of love from karbi Anglong 💖

Not a single word in a dictionary exists to describe the beauty of this super authentic, classic song. Such a profound contribution to the meitei ethic group. This is right damn classy! MEITEI's IDENTITY THROUGH THE EYES OF MUSIC That one song that revives the old meitei ethnic linguistics. That one song that calls heart to life. That one song that stirs one's spirit. That one song that gives a profound spirit to the linguistic identity of one of the oldest ethnic group( the Meitei) in the world. The song that calls the long lost old meitei language for it's revival. That one song with a glossary of old meitei dialect. That one song that awakens the very spirit of MEITEIness. Hats off to the singers, lyricist and musicians for such an enormous contribution to our meitei ethnic group. Perfect configuration! You have set a whole new bar🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Our meetei tradition is imcomparable🥰..feel proud to be a meetei

I love manipuri culture ❤🌸🌸

I literally don't understand even a single word but still touch my 💓... even i don't miss a single manipuri video when it got uploaded.. people use to question me why you use to listen manipuri song without not being understand by the lyrics..i simply answered them as why people listen to English,Hindi or South Indian song and don't tell me that they understand everything that's why they listened them....(they use to get the answer by itself..)

I like Manipuri Songs❤ Love from Chhattisgarh, India ❤
