The Light of Asia, U Ottama

While Myanmar being under the darkness,
He appeared in the western, Arakan Kingdom
To give the ray for the people under the dark.
While the whole Myanmar People being the full of being afraid,
He dare to the "Craddock"
" Hi, Craddock!" “GET OUT!"

While the other leaders being honored,
He is forgotten by the people of Myanmar
To honor him, "the Light of Asia."

While the memorials days of others held inside Myanmar,
The unforgettable day for him isn't allowed inside
To celebrate the unforgettable day of his demise.

However the times and years pass by,
However they insult your gratitude,
Despite you had already been death,
You are always alive in our Arakaneses' heart.
