Since the nascent stages of vernacular and English writing, in the Khasi Jaintia Hills, the khla has always played a prominent role.
It has been a constant source of inspiration not only within the folk traditions but has inspired creative works like short skits and memoirs.
U Khla Ha Ka Thoh Ka Tar
Naduh ki sngi ba nyngkong jong ka thoh ka tar, ha ka ktien Khasi bad ktien phareng, ki briew jong ngi ki la ioh buit thaw khana bunsien na u khla.
Ki bun ki jaid jingthoh jingpruid kiba la mih ha kine ki 100 snem mynshuwa kum ki skit lyngkot, ki khanatang bad ki khana hiar pateng.
