🌹 Happy 81, Daw Suu 🌹

I’ve found more warmth, more wholehearted love, more tenderness, more courage, and more caring concern among my people, as we hope together, we suffer together and struggle together, than anywhere else in the world Aung San Suu Kyi Letter from Burma (1997)

ရေစက်

Lately, I fell in love with a song: ရေစက် by ဖော်ကာ (wanted fokker) which I’ve been listening to on repeat.  It’s the word ရေစက် that fascinates me. I can’t find the exact word in English, however, the equivalent would be “destined” no less or “bound for”. In daily spoken Burmese, often hear oh you and I meet because we had ရေစက် in a past life and when we are about to be apart or comes a time we may never see each other again, say ရေစက်ကုန်ပြီ.
