Sleepless Lyrics · Rito Riba

Nom remka nam, ngo mari booli eh (ae)
Nom nyirdak be, ngo kali taali eh (ae)
Ngo rema rem ngoke, aalo ae teso jaa (aa)
Ngo dooma rem, ngo poogme asso jaa (aa)

Donyi hadaak loke, polo karshik daagbe
Nom kali la ngo reyar doona (aa)

Oh yumi aama, ngom aama, nom kaama rem
Dumu daga maa, noke aayam, ngo mipa rem

Yumi aama (oh ho… yeah)

Ae yo!
It’s your boy SIMYO
Check this out, yeah
Ah ah, cheer cheer, ah!
Kampona mimum no ngok aapi sok desire
You’ll be looking good in adi ke attire
Nome ngokke batdope donyi polo me ngo kumtiyea
Ngome torik suma milo ejo lokai manpiyea
Honeymoon lo nom enboye dubai, nomaai
Ngokke klirunam amik dobai ay
Abal kamadokom mirrem kisa duboye
Pettu dem mepala nom yekdin lokke doboye

Oh yumi amang, kapamang
Taani among em maata langkom nok kisana pamang (pamang)
Oh yumi amang, ilamang
Nome ayang mape lotel kote aapi si dulamang
Mimum abit dem kalimang kangkie (ae)
Nome mipa sila agisi ngo ngiltiea (ae)

Aaro komchi loke, aarum rori lobe
Nom taya la ngo duyaar doona (aa)

Aasu anga jaa, nokke agom, mam taama rem
Aatin aaruk jaa, ngoke nechi, lo rema rem

Yumi aama (aa)

This is a soulful Arunachali song that beautifully portrays love, distance, and sleepless longing. Sung in the Galo dialect, it blends traditional sounds with soft modern music, creating a calm and emotional flow. The lines tell the story of someone who cannot rest, thinking of their beloved far away, with lines that feel like gentle whispers carried through the night. The repeated phrase reflects endless affection and a deep bond that distance cannot break. With mentions of modern life and faraway places like Dubai, the song connects everyday love with heartfelt dreams.
