Description:		Translation (Rita) In the past, people worshipped Nat spirits. At that time, we had to be very careful of whatever we did or said. There was Mali Hka (river) in Kachin State. In some places, the river was narrow. A grown-up man could even jump over. Then, there were seven merchants who had to go pass that place. When one of the merchants jumped over it, he fell down into the water and disappeared. One by one jumped over it, but they all fell into the river and didn't appear. Then, there was only one merchant left. He thought, "There's no way that it will be usual. There might be an owner of this place." So, he threw his slippers to the other side of the river first. And he jumped over it with all of his effort. Then, he could pass it. He went back to the village and told villagers about what had happened to his friends. That's all about how people died there. Our Mighty GOD had created our Kachin land as a beautiful place with lots of tress and forests. The government widened the narrow parts of the river to be convenient for the ships to sail when they traded goods. They cleared many trees. In rainy season, the ships can sail there. But the river gets narrower, and the big ships couldn't go pass in summer. Our elders thought about it. If there aren't any trees and river, there is no way that our Kachin land will be nutritious and good enough for farming. When they tried to widen the river, there had floods and trees blocking their action. It was because Nat spirits which ruled there didn't like that. So, they couldn't widen the river. Our elders used to say about it. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi na prat e gaw dai nat jaw prat e gaw hpa mung grai hkrit ra ai, gara de hkawm tim grai hkrit ra ai aten re ai da.
