Description:		Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there lived a widower and his son in a village. (Widower means a man who has lost his wife by death.) He had one son. He loved his son very much and grew him well. He grew his son with nothing left to be desired. When the son became a grown-up man, he got married. In Kachin culture, the daughter-in-law needs to take care of her parents-in-law more than her parents. But his wife didn't want to take care of his father. When they were newlyweds, her father-in-law could still work. At that time, she liked to take care of him. But now, she didn't want to look after him since he was getting older and couldn't work anymore. So, she told her husband every night, "Abandon your father somewhere in the forest." He said, "No way! There are many tigers in the forest. We can't abandon him!" Then, she said, "We have to work too! Now, I have to work and need to look after your father too. I can't do it anymore! If you don't, I will divorce you." She threatened her husband like that. The father-in-law heard their conversation unintentionally. The old man was upset. But he didn't say anything. Since the wife always grumbled about it, he decided to abandon his father. One day, he made a big bamboo basket. Then, his father asked him, "Why are you making that big basket?" He said, "Because I have to use it. You will know soon." Every day, he made that basket. Whenever his father asked why, he gave the same answer. Then, the basket was completely weaved. At that time, he called, "Dad! Dad!" His father replied to him, "Yes, I am here." Then, he said, "Let's go somewhere, Dad." His father asked, "Where are we going to go?" He answered, "Just somewhere, Dad." Then, he put his father into the basket and carried him. He loved his father so much, but his wife always grumbled. So he decided to listen to his wife. The father knew that his son was going to abandon him. But he stayed quiet because he wanted his son to be happy. He had got a grandson too. The son packed some rice and took his old father to a ravine. He put him at the edge intentionally. If his father moved, he would fall into the ravine and die. Since his father was old, he couldn't see very well too. The son said, "Dad, stay here." The old father said, "Okay." He knew that his son abandoned him. But he loved him so much. He heard his son's footsteps fading away. When his son reached far away from him, he called, "My son!" His son replied to him, "Yes, Dad. What happened?" He said, "Come here. Take me out from this basket and take it back." His son asked, "Why?" He answered, "It's for your son. When your son grows up, he will need this basket one day." The father warned him in a clever way. When his father said that, he regretted his action towards his father. He thought, "I have a son too. If my son does the same thing to me as I did to Dad, I will be upset. I'm about to make a big mistake because of my silly wife." Then, he apologized to his father, "Dad, I was wrong. Please forgive me. You have raised me with all of your strength, but I did the wrong thing to you. I'm so sorry. Forgive me, Dad." And he took his father back home. When he reached home, he said to his wife, "You are a daughter-in-law of my father. You vowed to love me and everything related to me. But your action towards my father is not right. Whatever you said, I can't abandon my father just because of you. If you don't want it, you can divorce me." Since then, the wife regretted and apologized to her father-in-law. She took really good care of him later. In the end, they lived happily ever after. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi da kahtawng langai kaw shingkra yen wa nga ai da.
