I am now 38 years old. I am going to talk about an unforgettable incident that happened when I was 7 years old. This happened at around 12 noon after my father had left to work in the field. All of a sudden about four uncles from the army ran. At that time only, my mother and I were at home. As a lot of people were being shot at that time and my father was just 28 years old, my mother told me to go and fetch my father. When I was on my way I met two uncles from the army and they questioned as to where I was going. I said that I was going to fetch my father. They told me that there was a Siyambala tree and for me to hide near one of its roots. I sat down with the greatest fear. Then I heard loud noise from the direction my father went to. With that noise the uncles from the army told me to go home. At that time, we found out that a brother from a house close to ours had been shot dead. Then they left. My father came running in great speed because he had heard about the shooting some thought it was my father who was shot.

எனக்கு இப்போது 38 வயது. நான் 7 வயதாக இருந்தபோது நடந்தது ஒரு மறக்க முடியாத சம்பவம் பற்றி பேச போகிறேன். என் தந்தை வயலில் வேலைக்குச் சென்றபின் 12 மணியளவில் இது நடந்தது. திடீரென்று இராணுவத்தில் இருந்து நான்கு மாமாக்கள் ஓடின. அந்த நேரத்தில் மட்டுமே என் அம்மாவும் நானும் வீட்டில் இருந்தோம். அந்த நேரத்தில் நிறைய பேர் சுட்டுக் கொல்லப்பட்டபோது, என் தந்தை வெறும் 28 வயதானபோது, என் தந்தை என் தந்தையை அழைத்துச் செல்ல சொன்னார். என்னுடைய வழியில் இருந்தபோது நான் இராணுவத்தில் இருந்து இரண்டு மாமாக்களை சந்தித்தேன். அவர்கள் எங்கே போகிறார்கள் என்று அவர்கள் கேள்வி எழுப்பினார்கள். நான் என் தந்தையைப் பெறப் போகிறேன் என்று சொன்னேன். சியம்பலா மரமும், அதன் வேர்கள் ஒன்றில் மறைந்திருப்பதாக என்னிடம் சொன்னார்கள். நான் மிகுந்த பயத்துடன் உட்கார்ந்தேன். பிறகு என் தந்தை சென்ற திசையில் இருந்து சத்தம் கேட்டது. அந்த சத்தத்தோடு இராணுவத்திலிருந்து வந்த மாமாக்கள் வீட்டிற்கு போக சொன்னார்கள். அந்தச் சமயத்தில் நாங்கள் வீட்டிற்கு அருகில் உள்ள ஒரு சகோதரர் சுட்டுக் கொல்லப்பட்டதைக் கண்டோம். பின்னர் அவர்கள் வெளியேறினர். என் தந்தை சுடப்பட்ட என் தந்தை என்று நினைத்தேன் படப்பிடிப்பு பற்றி கேட்டேன் ஏனெனில் மிக வேகமான இயங்கும் வந்தது.
