Description: | Translation (Seng Pan) A Long time ago, there lived an orphan and the boy or Lalawma (If a family has many sons, they are called Lalawma) in a village near the palace. The orphan was quite dirty. There were many lice in his hair, and he always wore a hat. Since he was dirty, the boys didn't like him. They didn't get close to him. One day, the boys and the orphan travelled to the palace to sell things. Before they arrived at the palace, they had to cross a river. So, they took a boat and crossed the river. Before the orphan had left the village, his grandmother gave him a black and soiled small basket. We don't know what is inside. "Don't show anyone. When you get to the palace, only show it to the King," the grandmother said. The boy hustled the orphan on the boat as they felt disgusted, and the orphan fell into the river. However, he climbed to the boat. He faced many difficulties, and at last, he arrived at the palace. The King asked, "What do you have?" Then, the boys took out all the things that they had brought. The King asked the one who wore dirty clothes and was sitting at the corner, "What do you have?" "I can't show you now. I will show you tonight. It should be shown when there is no one," the orphan replied. He answered the King quaintly. "Ok. Then, follow me!" the King said. The King led to a dark room. When they got in the room, the King commanded, "Show me now!" Then, the orphan took out a tiny box from his small bag. When he opened the box, it brightened the whole country. The tiny thing shone brightly. And the orphan closed the box. "It shouldn't be easily shown," the orphan mumbled and put it in his bag. The King was fond of that thing as he could even buy a country with it. "How much do you want?" the King asked the orphan. However, the orphan didn't reply. So, the King asked again, "How much do you expect?" But the orphan didn't say a word. "Ok. Then, I will give you half of my country," the King said. But the orphan kept silent. Although the King offered half of his country, the orphan still shut his mouth. Then, the King gave the same amount of money as the orphan's hairs, including the number of lice in his hair. And then, the boys and the orphan returned to the village. When they got to the village, the grandmother asked the boys about her grandson. "Where is my grandson?" the grandmother asked. "Your grandson? He will not come back. We left him at the palace. And the King already killed him," a boy answered. However, the grandmother asked another boy where her grandson was. He also answered that he hadn't seen her grandson. The grandmother asked the one who was at the back and was the kindest among the boys, "Where is my grandson?" "Grandma. Your grandson is at the back," the boy replied. The grandmother waited and looked for her grandson. The orphan arrived near his grandmother wearing nice clothes. I am not so sure that he married the King's daughter or not. When the grandmother saw him, she fainted as she was so happy. And she died. I don't know what happens next. I don't know whether the orphan arrived back at the palace or not. I have no idea. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi mare hkawhkam wang langai kaw da lalaw ma ni hte jahkrai ma ngu langai mi nga ai da.
