Description: | Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there was a hunter in a village. One day, he saw a female snake in the forest. He caught the female snake and took it home. He cut the tongue of the snake. And he took it home. He kept it at home. At night, he dreamt of the male snake. In his dream, the male snake said that his wife didn't come back although it was dark and time for dinner. It was worried for its wife. He dreamt of the male snake that night. The next morning, he thought, "What should I do now? I already cut the female snake's tongue." After thinking for a while, he released the female snake. Then, the female snake went back to its husband. The male snake said happily, "My wife has come back. I feel relieved now. I will prepare a meal for her." But the female snake kept silent. It didn't reply back to its husband. The male snake wondered why its wife didn't talk to it. So, it opened the wife's mouth and saw that there was no tongue. Since the female snake didn't have a tongue, it couldn't speak at all. The hunter was upset because he cut the female snake's tongue. At night, he dreamt of the snake again. In his dream, the male snake told him, "You cut my wife's tongue, so my wife can't speak at all. But you released her. So, I am thankful to you. I feel sad too." The man felt guilty and upset. He regretted, "I caught the snake and cut its tongue. She couldn't speak because of me. I am doing bad things. I won't do that kind of action in the future anymore."
