Description: Translation (Htoi San) I am telling a story this time about Gawng Hkrang's wife. A long time ago, a couple did not have a child and stayed in a village. They worked farming for their living. One day in the morning, the couple ate a piece of meat and left another piece of meat covered nicely. They planned to eat that piece when they were tired at work and came back home to rest. Then they left. They cleared a farm so that they were worn out. They were tired and so hungry during the midday that they returned home. When they reached home, they found out that the meat which they kept that morning was gone. There was only a fly there. Then the couple thought there was only a fly nearby. Whatever it was, they believed that the fly ate their lump of meat, so they decided to kill it by any means. Thus they struck and chased with their might and main to kill it. The fly had wings, so it flew and sat here and there. The couple followed and bit it. They could not kill it even though they tried many times. So they were so angry and picked up an axe. Then they could hit till death by powdering it. At that time, the wife pointed to her forehead. The fly rested on her forehead, and the husband straight away struck the axe with all his might; therefore, his wife died. He repented after his wife passed away. "Oh my God, I want to kill the fly, but it doesn't die, but my wife does." He wept and wept. After a while, he regained consciousness, "I cannot cry like that just because my wife died." "I have to bury her. It is not fine if she stays longer." He dug a grave pit for his wife to bury. He rolled up his wife on the mat and brought her to the grave. His wife slipped from the mat at the place called 'Gawng Krang' and left her body there. He buried the empty mat roll and went back. He found his wife at the Gawng Krang booth on his way back. He was surprised, "Oh gosh! I am so mourning due to my wife's death. I am just coming back from burying my wife. There is another one lying at Gawng Krang shed and Gawng Krang's wife could also pass away. I think I am the only one grieving. Another body is lying at the booth, so Gawng Krang's wife passed away too. I am the only one who has sorrow and Friend Gawng Krang, you also feel mourning. What pitiful lives we have!" Thus he picked up his wife and said, "Friend, I will entomb your wife too." Then he inhumed his wife. After that, he went back home. Actually, a crow carried away that piece of meat, and it was sitting on a tree. That crow sat on the tree and planned to eat the meat deliciously. It scooped that meat chunk from here and there. There was a wolf sitting under the tree where the crow was on it. That wolf was so hungry and did not know where to find the food, so he sat down and waited. He saw a crow carrying a meat chunk scooping here and there when he looked up. So the wolf pondered. "How am I supposed to cheat so that I will get the meat piece?" He computed. The wolf was wicked, so he praised the crow intentionally. "Hey friend Crow, your cawing sound is so nice, and I like to listen to your sound." "I see you are so pretty. Your beauty is so shining. Can you make a cawing sound one time for me with your beautiful features and your gorgeous voice?" "I want to hear your cawing sound. Just one time to do it for me." The crow was haughty a bit as it was said to be good-looking and had a pleasant voice; therefore, it decided to caw. Then it made a sound "Ak". When it opened its mouth, the meat chunk from the mouth dropped. As soon as it fell, the wolf ate it. Transcription (Lu Awng) Ya kalang bai hkai na maumwi gaw gawnghkrang a madu jan re.
