Choe thongtshe nge sem ba macha
Nge sem ge nazu choe mena?
Choe gawai gazum de daa cha
Nge sem de kuu mena bum choe ge?
Nge sem de rawa meb jodo
Den desa tsala baa macha
Lo labi tshe lu ya denda mendu
Nge sem de chew mena len lab na may
Tasha bu cho bum nga laa
Rew cha sem la ke mengo
Tam hembai loo ju she mengo
Choe gawa wai gazum ten mengo
Choe nga lug ga rang ga wa chin
Bum nge ge sem khar baap tshu ga?
Thiku tshu nga ge tsha zha me tshu
Thong che che zom thiku lasha ra
Choe thong tsay nge sem ba macha
Nge sem ge nazhu choe mena
Choe ga wa gazhum de na cha
Sem choe ge kue mena lab na ma X 2
Note: a song from the film Sacho gami ga.. didnot watch the film but loved this song

The innocent ones
The world is cruel at times, we are made to pay for the mistakes committed by our forefathers even when we are innocent.
My friend was not even born when his grandfather decided to leave Bhutan.His father did not go because he disagreed with the decision made by the grandfather. Thus, my friend was born in Bhutan but is not not considered Bhutanese officially because of the mistakes made by his grandfather.
Recently a couple was arrested by the police in connection with embezzlement of fund from the bank. I pity them both because I know them well but what I sympathies more is that they have two children. Both the children are too young even to understand what money or embezzlement is. For the mistakes committed by the parents the children are having to suffer.
I wish there was some kind of a place where such children could be taken care of till they parents are free. Yes, relatives of the parents take the children but for how long would they keep them? I cannot even imagine the trauma the children would go through just because of their parents.
I know children will not hate the parents because every children idolizes their parents and look up to them as a good example.
There are many such cases where because of someone the innocent ones have to suffer equally and sometimes I feel is not fair.
What did the unborn child do to deserve abortion? What did the wife of the murderer do to come to rags from riches? What did the old parents of a drug seller do to deserve such pain at this age?
