Dareen Grace Marwein (11yrs) and Elfiba Syiemlieh (8yrs) are the main singers of "Mei Ko pa Ma e wan noh” they are also members of Kids Tarari Choir, Nongstoin.
The song is composed by Famous Khasi Folk Singer-Songwriter Josephas Thongni from Pyndengrei Nongstoin way back in 2016. Josephas’ daughter Dareen had a chance to sing the song in 2016 at a community event at Pyndengrei when she was 5 years old. Ever Since, the family had longed to record the song and fortunately it was finally recorded in 2023. With Elfiba as a co-singer and Ms.Badahun Nongrum in the backup vocals, the song successfully caught the attention of the listeners all across the region.

The song is an expression of melancholy by the composer from the past life as a kid but now turns out to be the expression of a typical life of most kids in rural areas of Khasi Hills, where kids are usually left at home by themselves where basic necessities like school, are not properly provided to them.
In this Video Dareen & Elfiba are wearing a Khasi casual attire “Jaiñkyrshah Shilliang” and “Spaiñ Khlieh” (head scarf) and musicians are wearing a traditional Khasi attire called “Jaiñtapmoh”
