Description: Translation (Mike Tu Awng) Long time ago in the forest near majoi shingra, there were an elephant and a lion lived as relatives in harmony. Even though they lived together, their attitudes were very different. They were different not only in attitude but also in the food they ate as the elephant ate grass and leaves but the lion ate meat. However, both of them were very patient and they lived together in harmony for a long time. They had lived like that for many years. Every evening, they went to the "Gingar River" near the majoi shingra mountain, which had the river source. They visited the river bank every afternoon and took a walk together on the river bank. They went for a walk every evening; the elephant would get there first and the lion would be late to get there on certain evening when it couldn't hunt animals early. Sometimes, there were also times when they had to return home without chatting. Then, one evening, the lion got his hunt early that day, and the elephant, too, after eating the grass to the full, they came to the 'ginga' river bank early and sat there and were enjoying the evening. They were boasting to one another the talents and qualities they had. The elephant boasted, "I am the biggest and the strongest among all the animals." The lion exclaimed, "I am the king of the animals and I can beat any animal." They were talking about themselves and sitting together. While they were sitting, they saw that there was a man with a straw hat on his head, who was paddling a boat by the river bank along that river. Then the lion said, "Brother elephant, we cannot live in this forest anymore because, look at the man paddling the boat in the river, this land belongs to wise people like him". To stand on a boat with that strong current in the river, a person must be a very wise, courageous, and capable person. Thus, let's not live in this region any longer. They discussed to migrate to another place. Then, the elephant said, "However, we are the strongest, you are the kind of the of the animals, and I am the biggest and the strongest among animals. We can live where Kachin can live. The lion replied, "No, let's just move to another place. If not, Kachin will enslave us both". The elephant did not agree to migrate when they knew that humans were going to enslave them. The elephant said, "I will stay here. Who can enslave me?" The lion said, "I will migrate to another place." Thus, the lion migrated to Africa. The elephant remained in our country. And, that's why nowadays, we can use elephant in our labour because the elephant is very arrogant in its mind. Since then, the elephant lived in our country, the lion did not live in our country, but in Africa. Now, they live apart because of the discussion they had that evening on the river bank. Since then, they live separately. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi shawng de lai sai ten hta e hto majoi shingra makau na maling langai mi kaw magwi hte hkanghkyi langai mi jinghku hku nna nga ma ai da.
