Description: Translation (Rita Seng Mai) This is about opium. The title of the story is 'opium'. Once upon a time, there was a river flowing between two villages. A girl lived on this side of the river while a boy lived on the other side. They were falling in love. But their parents didn't give their permission. They said, "You two live in different places, so you two can't be together." But they couldn't live separately. So, the boy swam across the river and went to the girl. They lived together there. Their parents didn't give their permission to them. They got really angry at them. So, the girl was upset and said, "Since our parents are getting angry at us and don't give their permission, ending my life could be better." She committed suicide at the place where they used to date. But the boy didn't know that she was dead. After two or three days, he went to that place to meet the girl. He saw her dead body and felt mournful. On his way back home, his eyes were full of tears and he had heartache. He was dead on the way too. The villagers saw their dead bodies and burnt them. The smoke coming out from burning their bodies went up to the sky and combined there. After a few days, a plant grew at the place where their bodies were burnt. It was a really beautiful plant. It was opium. The villagers saw that plant and thought, "Why is this beautiful plant growing on the grave?" They pinched the leaf and tasted it. Another one came there and tasted it again. The villagers came there again and tasted them again. So, they thought, "We should plant this plant. It is really good." It is opium which can be made of many different kinds of drugs. The opium was growing where the couple was lying. Once a person tries that opium, he doesn't want to quit it. This is the end of the story. Transcription (La Ring) E ndai kani a lam.
