I am no longer the river I was once The river that has been an integral element In the historic birth of 'Nupi Keithel ' An inalienable ally of the evolution of 'Ima Keithel ' A unique market of women exclusively run by women The only one of its kind found nowhere else The river that bears testimony to women's power How Nambul loves re-living the memory Of blazing British Bayonets bowing down To the indomitable spirit and 'never-give-up' character of 'Imas' of 'Ima Keithel '.
I am no longer the river I was once The river that has always been a privy To the sacred and latent functions of 'Ima Keithel ' The river that keeps an eye To all the profane and manifest activities of 'Ima Keithel ' The river that messages the message of 'Ima Keithel ' "We are the true embodiment of women's power If ever there was/is a classic/living phenomenon Of 'Women's Power' and 'Empowerment ' on Earth Here it is- the IMA KEITHEL of Manipur ".
