Description: | Translation (Htoi San) A long time ago, two men were in a hamlet. These two men had been blind since they were young. At the age of 20, they drank too much alcohol and became blind. Their parents could not look after them, so they left them themselves. The neighbors took care of them, and their relatives watched over them, but they drank too much liquor all the time. So people were fed up with them and abandoned them. As everyone left them, they sold all the belongings they had worked for when they could see. They still drank liquor until they did not have anything. They exchanged their views on stealing from the other village and then went for stealing. They stole a cow, but the owner saw them. They did not see it as they were blind and pulled the cow. The owner knew they were blind, and he wanted to forgive them. So he held and rang the cow's bell. One blind man said, "There is another cow. If we can sell two cows, we can drink more alcohol." Another man replied, "Yes, sure." Then he tied the cow to a tree trunk. They followed the owner as he was ringing the bell. The owner had sight, so he untied his cow properly and brought it back home. The two blind men thought, "This cow is so fast. It might scare us." Then they went to the place where they tied the first cow. They did not find the cow when they reached there to untie it. "Who took it? It cannot be taken by someone. We did not tie firmly as we are blind. So it can release by itself." After that, they forgave each other and went back home. One day, they went to a town to steal a gong. After they returned from stealing a gong, they walked the wrong way to a grave as they could not see. They fell into a ditch around a grave. The ditch water was kind of turning around, so they rotated inside the ditch. The two blind men thought, "This river is so far and long." Then they said, "We are taking so long here. Let's rest for a while and hit the gong. Test how good it is." At that time, they beat the gong. The owner of the gong heard the sound and extorted it from them. So they struck a person who took the gong forcibly from them. When the owner found out they were blind, he quietly left, so the two blind men defeated each other. One blind man could not stand beating and climbed up from the ditch. Another one knew he was left alone, so he shouted, "Help me! Help me!" The one from the ground took a rope and put it down to rescue his friend. "Even though we are so tired, we get nothing. Only if we don't drink liquor, we can beg people for our food. From this moment, we will not steal," the two blind men determined themselves and returned to their home. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi kalang mi hta la lahkawng nga ai da.
