Description: Translation (Gun Mai) It is a story about a strong man. Long long ago, in a family, it was very long to get pragnant and they got a boy finally. As soon as the boy was born, he had all teeth and was full of hair. The boy became a very strong man. So the villagers were afraid of him. Thus, all the villagers said to the parents of the strong man that "Hey.. your son is very strong. He will even eat you two and also will eat all the villagers. He is a bad boy so he should be killed." The whole villagers kept saying that. Although the parents of the boy said that "It won't happen," the villagers kept saying that "No, look at your boy. Even the newly born baby was very strong, he will be stronger and he will eat all of us. He is a scary nat." So, the parents said that "If so, what should we do? He is a very strong man. We can't kill him." Another villager also said so and the chief of the village also said so. Thus, they discussed how to kill the strong man. "If we kill him, he will attack back us and we can't defeat him. Let's plan how to kill him," the villagers discussed and asked the father of the strong man to pretend to be sick. So, the father of the strong man pretended to be sick and called a nat priest to check. The nat priest said that "It is not easy to cure your father." The strong man asked that "Why is it not easy, priest?" "Your father will be cured if he can eat the heart of the mother tiger who has baby tigers," the nat priest said. The nat priest said so because it was planned for the strong man to be killed by the tiger when he tried to get the heart of the tiger. A string was attached in the back of the father and the string was put down through the bamboo floor and the string was tied with dried fruit. So, when the father up from lying down on the bed, the dried fruit produced to sound like bone cracking. Thus, "Look, look, do you hear the bones are cracking? All the bones are not good anymore. That's why your father needs the heart of the tiger. Even among the tiger, it should not be the heart of the normal tiger, it should be the heart of the mother tiger who is breastfeeding (because the mother tiger was the most aggressive)," the nat priest said. The strong man said that "OK, I will try to get it if it is to cure my father." But, the strong man easily killed the mother tiger and took the heart and gave his father. So, the plan of the villagers was not successful and they felt depressed. They said again to kill a mother bear but the strong man easily killed the mother bear and gave the bear's heart again. But, the string was attached to the back of the father and it was still making the sound of bone cracking. So, the villagers said that "Look, your father's bones are still cracking. The heart of the bear also did not work." So, the strong man was asked to kill a mother elephant but the strong man easily killed the mother elephant and took its heart and gave his father again. So, the villagers said again that "You have to pick a star from the sky to cure your father otherwise your father won't be cured." Thus, the strong man built a ladder and climbed to the sky. When the strong man climbed and reached quite high, the villagers broke the ladder to fall the strong man down to death. But, the strong man jumped from the sky and went away. The strong man said to himself that "It is not good to kill my parents. So, it is impossible to continue to stay in this village so I should go away." Thus, the strong man left the village and met with a man. The strong man asked the man that "Who are you?" The man answered that "I am a person who has thorns on my shin. If I kick with my shin, everything is cut. That's why the villagers drove me out because of my sharp shin." "Really? I was also driven out from the villager because I am very strong. Let's collaborate between us," the strong man said There was also another man who said that "If I do my neck like this, even mountains are shaken. That's why the villagers drove me out. Let's collaborate among us." There was also another man and he said that "I am the person who even can pull about 300 to 400 bamboos. That's why the villagers drove me out. Let's collaborate." Likewise, such seven strong men met and collaborated. They said that "We all were driven out from the village. We don't have a fire now. There is smoking over there. Shall we go and ask the fire?" The strong man was the leader of the group so he asked a man to go. There was an old man who was with white hair. The man said to the old man that "Old man, give me some fire." "I don't know whether there is still fire. Check in the stove," the old man. When the man was checking in the stove, the old man hit the man and put him in a big basket because the old man was a cruel kind of nat. The rest of the strong men were also asked to go for fire but no one came back. So, the strong man suspected so he went there. The strong man asked the old man that "Old man, do you have a fire?" The old man said that "Check it in the stove." So, the strong man pretended to check the stove and when he immediately turned back, the old man, the cruel nat was about to hit him with a hammer. The strong man immediately grabbed the old man and said that "Are you the one who killed all my friends? Where did you put my friends? Make them alive again otherwise, I will kill you." All of his friends were killed and put in the big basket. The strong man asked the old man to make all the men alive back so the old man made them alive again. Then, all the strong men walked. When they were walking, on the way, an old man was fishing. The old man was a cruel nat and more powerful than the previous old man. It was in an ocean and the old man was put his legs down on each side of the ocean. The old man also had a bag. The old man was fishing with elephant bait. Then, the strong men said that "We thought that we the strongest men but there is a stronger man than us. Let's fight with him. If we all seven men fight with him, we can defeat him." So, they went to the old man and kicked the leg of the old man. But, the old man, cruel nat was stronger than them and he thought the strong men as frogs so he grabbed them and put them into his bag. How big the bag was that they even had to walk for seven days and seven nights to make one round of the bag. The old man returned home after fishing. The old man had a witch wife and a human wife. The old man said to his witch wife that "I did not get fish today but I got frogs. Please prepare these frogs for me to eat with alcohol." The witch wife said that "I am not free. Ask your human wife." So, the human wife was asked to prepare food but when the human wife looked at the bag, it was not frogs and it was all humans. So, she said to the strong men that "You have to run away now. If my husband knows about it, you all will be eaten." So, they ran away. After quite a while, the old man asked his human wife that "Haven't you finished yet the food?" The human wife answered that "You said there are frogs in the bag but when I looked at the bag, I don't see anything. There is no frog and it is an empty bag." Then, the old man said that "If so, they might escape on the way." So, the old man chased them. At that time, the strong men met with a white elephant and told about them. The white elephant quickly dug a deep hole and put the strong men in the deep hole, and he covered the hole. Soon later, the old man met with the white elephant and asked that "Didn't you see seven men here?" "I don't see anything," the white elephant answered. "They just passed this way recently. Are you sure?" the old man said again. Then, the white elephant said that "Ah... I remembered now. They went this way." The white elephant showed the old man another way. Then, the white elephant said to the strong men that "OK, you can go this way now." The strong men were guided to another way so they were free. Transcription (Lu Awng) N gun ja wa maumwi rai na re.
