Crystal clear as the sky's own hue,
Umngot river, a mirror true.
Down the hills, its waters flow,
Reflecting the world with a gentle glow.
Divers plunge, with hearts elate,
Into waters pure, where dreams await.
In every dive, a moment to savor,
In Umngot's embrace, joy finds its flavor.
In the depths, a world unseen,
Where silence reigns, and peace convenes.
Umngot's whispers, soft and clear,
Echo through time, drawing hearts near.
As clear as the sky, this river divine,
Where fish glide, and pearls brightly shine.
In Umngot's depths, pebbles dance with glee,
Visible treasures for all to see.
Just a stone's throw from Shillong's grace,
Umngot flows, a serene embrace
Where dreams arise and hearts tend,
In the river's depth, time seem to bend.
