Description: Translation (Dau Hkawng) I will tell about the female and male Sanam (gnome), which I heard before, who really existed in the very deep forest of the Kachin region, an area surrounded by mountains. They lived in around "Lido region" which was located in the headwaters area (Hkahku) in this country. So, one day, one of the families with 13 years old young man went to the mountains to cut down the forest and burned down all the fallen trees to make farmland. Meanwhile, they asked the young man, Lahpai Gam, to fetch water down the mountain. A long slope of the mountain was bare because of burnt and the young man also went down to the mountain to get water as his parents said, then he never came back to his parents. When the sun was extremely hot, the parents of the young man asked him to fetch water. That child never came back. Then, the parents went down to the river, but they just found water vessels. They could not find their son anywhere. Therefore, they sacrificed to a spirit and asked to help them to find their son. But they could not find their son in the deep forest. At that moment, the people from that area, after they cultivated for crops one time in a year, they moved and found another new farmland to cultivate. After ten years later, they came back again to the last 10 years of farmland and cultivated. During nine years, when they moved to another new place, the old farmland became a deep forest again as a new place to make farmland. At that time, female Sanam took away Lahpai Gam by force. All about these were things I learned later. So, one day, that the day of tenth years, the parent of Lahpai Gam, came back to the place from last 10 years and made farmland again and cultivated. They talked to each other "Now harvest time is coming. Look at there and look at paddy field!" said Father, and they got in and out of the farmhouse. Female Sanam who fetched Lahpai Gam away looked like a woman and had very long hair with very large breast, and also she seemed like a widow as she seemed to have lost her husband. So, that female Sanam took Lahpai Gam together with her and she just fed him only fruits for 10 years. Then now Lahpai Gam was grown up to 23 years old. At that moment, "Let's check around the farm and steal and eat more" said Lahpai Gam to female Sanam. "I really want to eat more! if you don't let me eat, I will hit and kill you and I will go back" intimidated to female Sanam. Female Sanam agreed with Lahpai Gam and they reached the border of the paddy field. When they looked up along the paddy field, they saw his father was walking around near the farmhouse and his mother was removing the husk from the paddy. Then, "Oh..! That woman must be my mother" as he said and run to the farmhouse from the border of the paddy field to the farmhouse. When he reached, "Mom, Dad help me please! Female Sanam is following me. Bring the sword. Hurry!" He cried out to his parent. As soon as he cried out, mother called out her husband "Father…! It's just a demon, let's fight with a sword". It had been ten years, even the parent could not recognize him, because their child Lahpai Gam was having bushy hair and looked like a bird's nest, as well as all the clothes were torn up and looked hideous. But, the Father remembered at once, and he said, "This is one of my son who was lost here about ten years ago" said father to his wife. As he spoke, he ran out to female Sanam and expelled out her, so that she never came back again. Lahpai Gam's father brought his son to their house at once on that evening. And so, In the deep forest of mountain and headwater (Hkahku) areas, a female and male Sanam really lived at that time. These are all what I heard about the female and male Sanam.
