Description: Translation (Rita Seng Mai & Keita Kurabe) This story is about birds which danced the Manau dance. A long time ago, when many small and big birds were flying happily in the jungle, they saw a big banyan tree with many fruits. They really wanted to eat those banyan fruits and said, "Let's eat! Let's eat!" One of the birds said, "Let's dance the Manau dance first!" "Before we eat, let's praise by dancing the Manau dance for getting a chance to eat these fruits." Then, the other bird asked, "Who will lead the dance?" So they told the great hornbill, "Mr. Great Hornbill, please lead the Manau dance as you are the biggest among us." The great hornbill agreed to lead the dance. As soon as the great hornbill sang "Oh ra ra," the other birds were so afraid and flew away because its voice was too loud. Then, they thought of another way and told each other, "We need to find another one who can lead the dance and can completely unite us." They went to a Racket-tailed drongo to ask if it could lead. The Racket-tailed drongo is a bird that we Kachin cherish. Its tails are put on a traditional headdress of ritual leaders during the Manau dance. Then, the Racket-tailed drongo led the Manau dance and sang with its pleasant and mellow voice. The Racket-tailed drong is said to be the king of the birds. The Racket-tailed drongo usually wakes the other small birds up at dawn in the jungle with its pleasant and mellow voice. After birds danced the Manau dance, they happily ate those banyan fruits together. The blue-throated barbet was the priest of the Manau dance. Its head is red. The waiter birds asked the crimson sunbird. "How should we apportion banyan fruits to each bird?" Then, the blue-throated barbet told, "Give a small amount of food to small birds, and give a large amount of food to big birds!" The small birds were dissatisfied about this and they broke the blue-throated barbet's head. That's why the blue-throated barbet has a red head now. Transcription (Lu Awng) U ni manau nau ai lam.
