[cxvii] Tangkal Lumbong
Before clearing the Ground to start working
Al-salam ʿaleikum kapada Malai’kat,
Ibu-ku Bumi, bapa-ku Ayer,
Hei Nang Terni, Kun Pali, Jin Puteh,
Jembalang di Bumi,
Nang Prak songsang, Jin Hitam,
Yang bertapa di kulit Bumi,
Nang Prak Weihah, Jin Kuning,
Yang bertapa di selisi Awan,
Hei Marang Kuan, Berhala Muda,
Nang Kriak, Raja di Gunong,
Hei Si Arang-arang, Si Arong-arong
Asal nanah ampu nanah
Asal puteh berchampor puteh.
