all who have seen him will speak like this, "where has he gone, where [is he]?"” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “he will-disappear forever/[lit. until whenever] like his (own) dung. The ones who know him, will-ask where he is now.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)

and those who knew them will ask, ‘Where did they go/What happened to them?’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
