Description:		Translation (Rita Seng Mai) This is about an endless story. Once upon a time, there was an old chief in a village. He was addicted to listening to the stories. Every night, one villager needed to tell one story. After they had told the stories the next morning, the chief kicked on their butts. Then, they could go back to their houses. The villagers couldn't refuse to tell the stories. If they said they didn't have any stories to tell anymore, the chief kicked three times on their butts before he let them go back. One day, the chief announced, "If one can tell the endless story, I will give him my daughter!" Then, the villagers came to him and told the story one after one. But they didn't know lots of stories, so no one got the chief's daughter. And the chief kicked them on their butts before they went back home. Finally, it was time for a herdsman to tell the story. The villagers said, "Tonight, you have to go there. It's your time to tell the stories." He took his flute and went to the chief. And he told the story, "Once upon a time, there were four people in a village. Each had his own bullock cart. One day, they carried the rice grains with their bullock carts and went to paddy purchasing centres to sell those. On their way, they were robbed. The bandits said, "Hey! We will take all of your valuable things!" The four men put the bullock carts near the tree and walked back and forth between the cats and the trees. At that time, the bandits thought that there would be many people in the carts. So, they decided not to rob. The four men continued their journey and met many sparrows. The sparrows took the rice grains from them. Each sparrow took a grain. They flew back again and took another grain..." Every night, the herdsman told that story and stopped it just right there. He said, "Another sparrow came and took one grain..." Then, the old chief said to him, "Continue your story." The herdsman replied, "There were four bullock carts full of rice grains. Every night, one sparrow came to take a grain. There were many rice grains left. I will continue my story when there was no rice grain left." The next night, the herdsman went to the chief and repeated the story. In the end, the chief did not want to listen to the story anymore. He shut his ears and shouted, "Hey! Stop telling your story. Just take my daughter and go back!" Then, the herdsman finished the story. He got the daughter of the chief too.
