Description: | Summary (Keita Kurabe) Long ago, there was a village where night never fell. One day, an old woman and her grandson from the village went to pick pennyworts (Hydrocotyle asiatica). They picked them for two days without sleeping because there were no nights. Then suddenly it got dark. When they investigated the cause, they found a frog with a large belly, round and shining, and thought that it got dark because the frog swallowed the sun. Since that day, the days and nights have been distinguished. Nights have begun to fall when the frog moves his belly. Translation (Htoi San) I am going to tell a story about how the darkness became because a frog swallowed the sun. Once upon a time, there was a village. In that village, there was no darkness. Therefore, the people from that village did not have time to rest and sleep. Due to the lack of darkness, a gentleman from the village set a rule to sleep at ten o'clock, so people had time to rest until ten o'clock. If the villagers could not sleep in the morning, people could die due to the lack of sleep. Therefore the village head issued the rule to sleep at ten o'clock. One day, a grandma and her grandchild went to pluck pennywort leaves. They got a large amount of pennywort leaves, so they could not eat them all alone. They had to share the leaves with each of their neighbors. Thus, they plucked as many leaves as possible. Their village only had daylight, and it shone for two days. They did not have night. Even though there was no night in their village, it suddenly became dark one day. It was automatically nighttime as it was dark. The people were amazed by how it happened and looked for the result. They found out that there was a round ball inside a giant frog's stomach, and it was shining. People saw brightness and looked seriously at the lamps. They finally assumed the frog swallowed the sun, so there was darkness. They told their leader about this, "Village leader, and we have darkness in our village." The village head was so happy when he heard they had darkness in their hamlet. Then he asked, "How do you know that?" The people answered, "We had darkness because of the frog." The leader asked again, "How can the frog create the darkness?" People replied, "One day, when we went to pluck the pennywort leaves, the sun was there as usual, but it went down suddenly, and the brightness disappeared." "So we walked and walked and found a frog which looked like it swallowed a round shape inside its stomach. Then the stomach was so bright. So we believed that the frog swallowed the sun. As a result, the frog makes the night for us." From that day onwards, as the frog swallowed the sun, it did not have the power to be shone. The sun could only shine when it came out from the frog, and it became dark when the frog swallowed back. It was bright, and then it was dark later. Since the frog had swallowed the sun, we had daytime and nighttime from that time onwards. If the frog did not swallow the sun, we humans could not have had time to sleep and rest and had to work and work all the time. Therefore, the night and the day have been separated since that time.
