Description: Translation (Mike Tu Awng) The story I am going to tell you is about Great Hornbill and Racket-tailed Drongo. Children, have you ever heard about the story of Great Hornbill and Racket-tailed Drongo? If not, Grandpa will tell you now. Great Hornbill is not only the biggest in size but also it has the most beautiful feather among birds that live on tree. It is not only distinctively big but also its head and beak are forever bright, colorful and beautiful. Great Hornbill's head and appearance are always beautiful because it applies namsam fro its chyangaw every day, and that is how it is always moist and beautiful. Because of its enormous size and its glorious appearance, all the birds give so muc respect to it and they make it their king. Just after one month of coronation to the throne, Great Hornbill's manners, the way it talk, and its characters started to change. It shouted with anger to lower rank leaders, and threantened small birds, and worst of all, it became very sturbborn. It was making everyone's life miserable. Because of that all birds, big and small, will indignent and started to think about denouncing the Great Hornbill from throne. They wanted a compassionate, loving, and patient king. In order to have that kind of king, they formed a secreat committee to select the king. As they were handed with the responsibility, the leaders of the committee took a long time to select because there were many glorious, active, and beautiful birds among them. So, it was difficult to select what they wanted. One day, those leaders thought of something. They gathered poor, unimportant, and small birds and said to them, "As you all know that as long as this Great Hornbill is our king, we are never going to be properous and live happily." They continued, "More than this, it is a big concerned especially for poor minority like us." "Therefore, tell us what you want and give us some suggestions as to whom we should select as our next king." When they had said that a small bird named, 'chyinghkyit la' sitting at the corner stood up and said, "To lead all the nations, there is only one bird who can do that. That is Racket-tailed Drongo." After the small bird, 'chyinghkrit la' had said that, all the other birds agreed and supported it. You can take a look at Racket-tailed Drongo in the photo to see what kind of bird it is so that all the small birds wanted it to be their king. In addition, the Racket-tailed Drongo must have some unique potentials which were different from the Great Hornbill. When they compared it with the Great Hornbill, the Racket-tailed Drongo was very small in size and the whole body was covered with black feathers, and there was nothing glorious about it. However, even though Racket-tailed Drongo was very not glorious in appearance, it had all the qualities that a king should have. All the small birds who had befriended and lived together with it, knew about it and praised about it. The uniqueness of the Racket-tailed Drongo is; 1. There was no pride in the Racket-tailed Drongo, but it had a humble heart. Number 2. As the Racket-tailed Drongo gave respect to the elders, it was compassionate to the poor and the needy. Number 3. It never uttered boastful words but humble and pleasant in speech. 4. The words it used were pleasant only in superficial level, but the Racket-tailed Drongo could encourage and support to the poor and the needy in real life. 5. It always put priority in the benefits of all and it was always in a collaborative leadership as to where they could go out for food and how they should live their lives. 6. Any bird that heard the Racket-tailed Drongo's sound, 'oilik' whether they are broken hearted or whether they are suffering from the conflicts of war, whether they are starving, this sound can really console their hearts and it had the power to empower the hearts of others. That's why they thought the Racket-tailed Drongo should be the king. Children, Grandpa is not going to tell you the end of the story. I, your grandpa, am giving you the responsibility to finish the story of how the arrogant the Great Hornbill kingship fell, and when the Racket-tailed Drongo became king, I am sure you can foresee how all birds whether different in types, small or big lived peacefully, harmoniously their whole life. This is a unique story that was revealed to our ancestors by God to foretell what is going to happen today. Transcription (Lu Awng) Ya ngai hkai na gaw u hkawngrang hte sinwa u a maumwi re.
