Description:Translation (Htoi San) Once upon a time, there were two blind men. One blind man could not see from his mother's womb. Another one could not see when he was older. One day, they traveled together. When they reached a village, they rested there. One man, who was blind when he was old, said to another blind man, "Hey, friend. I want to drink something like milk." Another man, who was blind since he was born, did not have any idea of what milk was and what the features of milk were. He did not know what the milk was and asked, "Friend! What does milk look like?" The first one replied, "Milk looks like a water bird." Another one questioned him, "What is the water bird like?" The first one answered, "Friend, the water bird looks white." However, the second one did not know the color white, so the first man tried to curve his hands to show. The first one bent his hands and said, "Friend, the water bird is like this. Hold my hands." The one, who was blind since he was young, rubbed his friend's hands and found them very curving. Therefore, he said, "Oh my! The one you want to drink is bending that much. So you will choke if you drink that." The one who was blind from his mother's womb said, "I won't drink that. I don't want to drink the milk you want." Transcription (La Ring) Moi kalang mi hta da ndai myi nmu ai la lahkawng nga ai da.
