Description:Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there was a big tiger in a forest. He was a big liar. He often told lies and lied almost every animal. He got older day by day. He couldn't do much, though the spirit was willing but the flesh was weak. He kept thinking an idea to lie the others. He came up with a wicked idea since he was getting older day by day and couldn't catch any preys. Then he plucked the grass which was just besides him and held tightly it in his hand. And he shouted, "Hello! All my friends who go past this forest, come and get the gold bracelet from my hand. Since I am an old tiger, I can't afford to find food by myself. So, come and get the gold bracelet by giving some money to me. You'll get blessings!" Then the man who was greedy heard what the tiger shouted. He was very poor. After he heard that, he thought to himself' "Wow. Okay. Today is the day I will be the rich." And he went there. When he reached there, he saw that the tiger sat just besides the lake. He was scared to go near the tiger. He thought, "If I go near the tiger, it might bite me and kill me." Then he moved slowly and slowly. But he really wanted to get those gold bracelets since he was a greedy man. Then he decided to go near after he had thought, "Umm, if I want to be rich, I shouldn't be frightened. This is the chance for me to get rich. I dare to sacrifice myself." When he went there, the tiger told him to come closer. Then he asked the tiger, "Where's your gold bracelet?" The tiger answered, "Of course, I have. Don't worry! I hold it in my hand." So he told the tiger, "Who would believe you? You spend your lifetime by telling a lie. And you catch the other and eat them by telling a lie. Who would believe you, the old tiger?" Then the tiger replied him, "Yes, I know I told only a lie to the other. I was such a big liar. But it was in the past. Now, I have changed." The tiger lied to him again. The tiger continued, "Now, I am just an old tiger. I don't even have sharp teeth to bite. And I can't bite anyone anymore since I lose most of my teeth. Just come closer to me! Don't be scared. Since you are poor, you should give many things to the other who are poorer than you. So that, you will be rich one day." The man asked the tiger, "Then, where is your gold bracelet? Give it to me." The tiger replied him, "No, you take a rest now. You must feel really tired since you have travelled the whole day. Take a shower in the lake over there. Drink the cool water and take a rest now. Then you take my gold bracelet and go back. Okay?" Then the man was greedy on the gold bracelet he couldn't even see. So, he really went into the lake to take a shower. When he went into the lake, he was stuck into the deep mud. It was hard to move and escape out of the mud. Then he asked the tiger to help him out, "Hey! My friend tiger, help me out! Help me! I can't go out from here. Pull me up please!" Then the tiger pretended to pull him up from his hand and ate him right away. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi da moi shawng de nam mali kaba langai mi kaw da grai masu chye ai sharaw kaba 1 mi nga ai da.
