Kalpana Patowary singing Lieng Makaw, originally sung by Dr Bhupen Hazarika.In 1964, when Bhupen Hazarika chose a Khasi love story for his fourth Assamese film ‘Pratidhwani’, he composed the lyric “Lien Makaw” that described the traditional Khasi jainsem as a piece of cloth woven from lightning, an identity of the matrilineal Khasi society. The lyric celebrates the love affair between Manik Raiton, the flute player and his lover Lieng Makaw. The lyric contains several Khasi words like ‘diengsiej’, ‘sharati ‘and ‘khublei Shibun’.

The sheer simplicity of lifestyle of the people in the North East, its tradition and culture captivated    Dr. Hazrika’s soul. He dreamt of unity among diversity. Such lyrics as Lieng Makaw deal with mythical legends as well as historical events connected with the Khasi people in Meghalaya, the natural beauty of Meghalaya, the lifestyles, traditions and cultures of the Khasis and the assimilation and unity between the Khasis and the Assamese.
