Abstract
Nihali texts represent the narratives dealing with several aspects of tribal life including the traditional knowledge, lifestyle, equality of persons, joy, and sorrow of the people, and their philosophy of life. The texts are represented in phonetic transcription, rather than transliteration, to preserve the spoken style of the narratives. Each sentence is numbered, with word-to-word meaning and free translation into English.
