Burmese Classical Music (Ka Thit Pann) Covered by Gersing (a Burmese guy)

This song was requested by tootoolay. Tough song and not my usual style but I gave it my best. Forgive lots of singing reflexes and weird facial expression when I changed pitches.

The song is about a conflict between the heaven and the hell. Two main characters of the song are the master of heaven and the master of hell. They are in-laws and don't like each other.

Once a year, hell dwellers celebrate a festival of red (Tha-Koot) flower blossoms at the end of summer and beginning of raining season. However, when they found out that white (Ka-thit) flowers from heaven were growing instead in hell, they became furious and began marching to heaven to have a war with heaven dwellers.

Lightening, thundering and pouring rain are results of the war between heaven and hell, as the song implies using several metaphors.

Many credits go to Mabaydar (http://youtube.com/mabaydar) for word for word translation and Mathida for brief introduction. I would not have sung this song without understanding the lyrics completely.. so, thanks to you guys!

This song was written by a legendary Burmese song writer Myo Ma Nying. I think the original singer is U Aunt Gyi. I have seen a cover by Daw Mar Mar Aye whom I regarded as one of the best Burmese singers. Yan Aung also covered this song.

@AUNGKS61 I did not translate the song. Some people I met on YT helped translate the lyrics for me.. I was not understanding the meaning of the song until they explained it to me.
