"Witnessing the wedding and crowning of five Kings in one lifetime"

With the crowning of His Majesty the Fifth Druk Gyalpo in 2008, she has witnessed the crowning of all the five Kings of Bhutan. Angay Sangay Pelzom from Bjoka in Zhemgang is 110-year-old. She lives with her granddaughter in Gelephu.

Angay Sangay has also witnessed the wedding of the four Druk Gyalpos. Come Thursday and she would have witnessed the wedding of the fifth Druk Gyalpo as well.
In 2008 during the coronation of His Majesty the King, she came to celebrate the event at the Tendrelthang in Thimphu, where she offered Ku Sung Thu gi mendrel to His Majesty. This time she will not be able to come to witness the historic event in person but will definitely be watching it LIVE on BBS TV.
At 110, Angay Sangay is a very satisfied person, having lived to see some of the historic events in the history of the Kingdom.

A Mistaken Food

This is song written and sung by Dr. Sherab Dorji. As this song is not fully understood by many listeners, I thought it would be nice to translate and share it here.

From the hands of generous people

I (fish) didn't expect a hook

But the hook of an uncompassionate Buddhist

Is killing me in the sandy plain

While I was in the depth of the river

I was content with the elegance of my body

From the hands of women loving eggs

I (hen) didn't expect a poisonous act

But the ill will of women loving bloody meat

Is ripping off my feathers in boiling water

While I was at the door of the house

Laid laying nutritious eggs

From a religious minded son

I (ox) didn't expect a knife

But the knife of the money loving son

Is separating my body in the paddy field

While I was at a beautiful village

I ploughed the field tirelessly

From the hand of greedy nomad

I (she-yak) didn't expect a spear

But the spear of wretched nomad

Is making me crave for water in the butcher's town

While I was in the mountains

I happily grazed the grass and flowers

P.S. Both the singer and translator are vegetarian.
