19th July 1947
(19.7.47)

Inside the golden Burma
An internal event occurred
Due to crooked, crazy and cunning plotters
(Oh, Bogyoke) You died in shallow water.

On scrutinizing the cause of killing instance
It was within a year after Japanese resistance
We are clandestinely marching for independence
We are working en masse for deliverance.

How wild the impure bred are!
Cruel and cunning were their agenda
They murdered hero and helpers
For them to enter rapidly Nat-Pyi (Deva-Plane)
All the dead were honorable heroic Saki
We pray for more to be.

I explained what have happened
Time has passed and event dampened
It occurred on 19th July 1947
On repeated scrutiny, I found then
My memory goes right inside the liver organ
It’s never to be forgotten.
